This one, may help decide on what product if any. Although some products might have changed since 2007.

Old topic, but always worth bringing up again from time to time to discuss "new and improved" concoctions on the market. The second link is a good place to see if your current brew is doing you any good or harm, or perhaps you want to try something different. I'd say additive of a proper lubricity (and jelling level) have become a necessary evil for the good old 1st gens and I use it all the time now.
RIP 91.5 W250 5 speed. The great experiment.

Good ol 2-stroke is a option, Helps with the lubrication and longevity of your injection system. 1-oz per gallon of fuel is all you need.
