The ones that have no block heater from the factory have a large threaded plug (with a 19 mm hex hole in the center) placed where the block heater goes. Take it out with an allen wrench and extension and put the block heater in. I don't recall exactly what the picture you posted earlier of a block heater looks like, but I think it was of the wrong thing. Attached is a picture of the block heater I installed in our OM617. It's a rather difficult job with the engine in the car (I did it on a '72 220D/8, OM615). I did this one before I installed the engine in our W123, changing it from a 240D to a 300D.

-10C? Thats 12F which is cool but not particularly cold. My '83 240D used to start pretty good down to 0F at which point it'd begin to get ornery.

Re: [MBZ] Looking for 220V Om617 block heater
Now that you mention it - my first MB, a '70 220D, had a heater in the heater hose - so you turned cabin heat on full, opened both the floor and defroster vents, plugged it in at night. The windshield would be mostly clear when all others in the neighborhood were frosted over. The factory block heaters in the subsequent MBs never cleared the windshield quite as well.

Ah, but the block heater is not just so that the vehicle will start. It helps the engine warm up faster and therefore produce heat sooner.

That's the solution. Way back in the middle of the last century when I was in Germany, transformers worked on all sorts of 110/120V stuff except clocks.. 50 cycles vs 60 cycles. The modern world has an entirely different definition of a "transformer".. Please save us from Mattel! Take care, Chuck Phoenix AZ And a pet peeve..
