Careful there about what he's "misting" into the intake. Diesel does not
atomize, so either he means he poured some in, OR he sprayed in WD40 (common
trick).

However, in my books use of WD40 is roughly equivalent to starting fluid,
which is a huge no-no on Mercedes diesels. Especially on a car that may have
sat for a while.
