My 78 240D started easily until it got cold even if plugged in. Then it
refused even w/new GPs. Ended up having low compression but it gave me
the "opportunity" to completely rebuild the engine. I still think about
that rebuild with pride. Gave me 30,000miles + of trouble free driving....
Have you checked the compression?

Quite possible too! I've had several bad GP relays. If the GPs test
good, and you HAVE replaced the fuse, (and the new fuse does not blow
the first time you try to glow) and it is still no start, then it is
likely the relay is bad.

That sounds like the experience I had with my '84 300D when the relay
failed. If the engine has decent compression it should start ok with
one bad GP. The GPs are easy to test with an ohmmeter.
