1986 300 SDL Turbo Diesel /Purge before new injector install?

I've become the proud owner of an 1986 300sdl turbo!
and have begun doing my part to advance Kent's great place here.
The motor has 151000 miles and appears in good shape(little or no smoke/pickup/etc)
I've ordered new injectors in my excitement and other stuff before realizing that Purging is a good preventative maintence.(Came from a gas home)
will purging before installing the new injectors be of benefit?
Thanks in advance!
And so begins a new romance.....

617 Injector return line replacement

Greetings, all.

I've got all the parts I need to replace the fuel injector return lines on my 617 engine, but I'm not sure what tools I should have and what procedures I need to follow. Most that I've read says I only need a pair of needle nose pliers, but this seems too simple to me. Is it really just a matter of pulling the old guys out and pushing the new ones in?

Thanks!

Collin
