Re: [MBZ] Oh wow I might have to have this
Did you know the first year of 2 of 123 240D/220D etc had the pull start knob? It was actually a combo pull start and idle control knob.

Re: [MBZ] Oh wow I might have to have this
W115 has a key start with the knob that you turn for starting assistance.

Re: [MBZ] Oh wow I might have to have this
I believe the 240 was always a W123, the 220 only lasted until 1974. Might
have been a 240 for the last couple years (73 and 74), but the W123 came out
in 75 as the 240, the 300 W123 was I think 1976.
At least until 72 the W115 was a pull knob start, and I think that was true
until the W123. 300D/W114 got key start with a relay somewhere along there,
but I don’t remember when — that is, the 5 cylinder diesel.

Re: [MBZ] Oh wow I might have to have this
Hmm - when did the 240D in the W115 chassis come out? I thought they went with key start instead of the pull knob when the 240D replaced the 220D.
