As for fuel system, Jack the car up. get on a creeper (or your cardboard the worlds lowest creeper) and trace the diesel fuel and return lines from the fuel tank to the engine. check under each rubber mount on the metal hard lines to make sure that they havent rubbed through. make sure your primer pump isnt leaking either.. and thats pretty much it too. Oh, and the glowplug light to the dashboard.. its an "idiot" light, the light senses voltage drop and then turns on. -shrug- its not reliable.

Thank you ALL, fine gentlemen. I will get to the T/S ASAP but one thing that REALLY annoyes me is the fact that I cannot hear the FRICKEN relay at all. Next time I start it, I will remove the knee boltster under the steering wheel and feel the relay to see If I can feel it disconnect. If the relay is bad, would I still get a light??

I back tracked his ******** post to see what kind of glow plug relay he has. It appears that he dose not have the one that is in the eingine compartment.
http://www.***************/search/product.aspx?sid=sklnngizbpmzfum3cj2jbq2s&makeid=800016@Mercedes&modelid=1192957@240D&year=1978&cid=25@Ignition%20Parts&gid=7161@Pre-Glow%20Time%20Relay It also shows that there is a temperature switch that is hooked to his relay. Could this also be a source of his problems? See if item #15 at this site will help: http://www.pauldrayton.com/uploadfiles/merc/Service/W123/Index/616index.html

Ah, i see he has the older style i did not notice that. Im not too keen on the older style you may be better off with a momentary switch to activate the glowplugs.
