Engine oil lubricating the IP is not true for OM 621 and at least some 615 engines. Does anyone know where the cutoff was between the fuel lubricated pumps and crankcase oil lubricated pumps? I think it was mid 70s somewhere.

My 66 engines are fuel lubricated.  My 81 240D is engine lubed.

internals.
