1982 Mercedes 240d 8 degree cold start w123

Description

1982 Mercedes 240d starting on 100% diesel fuel on a very cold 8 degree morning. Not plugged in...its been sitting outside all night. I followed the manual's directions to start it. 3 pumps hold the pedal to the floor. Turn high idle adjuster counterclockwise to engage. wait for glow plug light to go out... crank until start release accelerator when engine fires smoothly... Would have started sooner and smoother on 50/50 diesel/kerosene
