I always keep cans of seafoam with my spare filters for that purpose. Local mechanic who services mercedes diesels uses atf. I'd say whatever you have around will work.

I always use ATF to prime my fuel filter. We always used it when changing the filters on big trucks with the idea that it would give the fuel system and injectors a little cleaning out.
