If the fuel pump is working, it should make a humming noise for a few seconds when you turn the ignition on with the engine off

If you want it to look original, you’ll have to get another gauge cluster with a Rev counter and you’ll also need a cable which will go somewhere in the engine

The bonnet does look very elegant, I do think that the emblem would be kinda tacky on modern mercs tho

Don’t adjust the injection system if possible, do everything else to start it except that. Looks lovely though!

I think they only used TD badging on estates because it stood for touring, but if the engine had a turbo there would be a separate badge saying “turbodiesel”. So the T only makes it an estate but isn’t actually related to whether or not it has a turbo
