[diesel_mercedes] blowing off in tank filter, Startron & O Rings

 

OK so I finally got around to using the compressor and blowing backwards on the fuel line to blow the assumed crud off of the in tank filter.  The car runs like a demon up and down the driveway, but once I get it out on the road it's back to a turtle, chugging along.  I did get some speed up going down hill.  Gushing oil out of the turbo oil return tube so I had to come back up to put oil in...time for dinner so I've given up for tonight.

How much Startron can I safely put in a 3/4 full tank? 

Next question...exactly which parts do I need to replace on the rotted O rings associated with the turbo oil return tube?  I looked at AutohausAZ a while back and they didn't have them.  I recall finding something on Ecklers but it wasn't the right thing according to Nate.  I sure thought I had them looked up at one point and they were under $20.
