Howdy folks,


For quite a few years I owned a '76 240d W115 while living in Portland. I adored that car and only sold because I ended up moving cross country.


Years later I'm back in the NW and this week I'm picking up a new/old '76 240d.


I do most of my own repairs and maintenance. My last 240d came with one of the old Green manuals (can't remember what it was called) that was thick and comprehensive.



Now I'm seeing the basic Haynes manual is for W123 chassis cars. Are these helpful for anything in regards to the W115's?


Also, in looking on Ebay I'm seeing some expensive manuals/books, which do I need? Basically all I need at this point is to know the basic procedures for routine maintenance. I remember how to do the canister oil filter and oil bath air cleaner.


But I will want to replace the fuel filters and can't recollect the procedure on priming.

And also want to service the auto tranny/filter etc and don't know the right procedure for this either.



Is there a "maintenance/service" version of the old green MB manuals? Just want to be sure I don't buy a book that doesn't have the info I need.



Thanks a bunch!
