Lubro Moly
Lubro Moly is really good stuff. Use the Jectron in along with the Ventil Sauber once every 90 days. I used to buy it by the case (6 each) and used it every other month.

My dealership uses B&G 44K and I think that is a hard product to beat.

B&G 44K is great on older carburated vehicles like that vintage Mustang or Big Block Chevy that you only drive once a month. Keeps the carbs from gumming and varnishing up with todays ethanol blended gasoline.
Of course, alot of people swear by Chevron Techron. Especially if you double up and use 2 of the 20 gal bottles in one tank: wait for your fuel reserve light to go on, dump a bottle in, fill the tank with the best gas you can find in your area, and top the tank off with the second bottle.

chevron techron is the only mb-approved fuel additive and it does work well.
and yes, the 55 cars (both n/a and blown) are very prone to carbon build up if not driven aggressively. you will know it is time to clean when first started in the morning the engine will knock (hard) for a minute or two and then when it warms up it will quiet down.
