Diesel purge DIY?

I have searched and cannot find a "how to" on a diesel purge for the 210. I have done them on the 124 but that is much simpler. Can anyone tell me how to do a 210 turbodiesel?

Thanks,
A new owner of a E300 Turbodiesel

Both fuel lanes are clamped to the firewall in front of the driver. Just pull the hoses off and do the job.
Don't think you need 27-point step by step instruction for this?

Firewall? I dont think so, I've done it before the 2 lines you want are at the fuel filter.

You can do it the hard way the guys shows, but those plastic tubings and o-rings get very fragile with age and on 300D are almost impossible to reach.
The fuel hoses loops very conveniently close to the brake fluid reservoir and don't require any monkey adapters. Just disconnect them there, clean and stick inside the bottle. Small extensions might make it easier, but are not necessary.
BTW the manual for purge advises "operate at various speeds" while video show idling only.
