    Hi slamedbear. Welcome to the site!

    What kind of conversion are you talking about? If the 220 is a diesel, there's no conversion needed (but there may be some fuel line changes needed on a car that old). That's part of the beauty of biodiesel. If you're talking about converting a gasoline engine, that's a whole different story.

    yes it is a diesel. then just change out the fuel lines and add a new filter an that would take care of it?

    That's pretty much it.  Those old indirect injection Mercedes engines love biodiesel.
