The excellent magazine "Classic and sports Car" latest issue has a very good special on the Mercedes SL model over its entire history.
Worth buying IMHO.
The W202 fuel tank senders are underneath the car on opposing sides. They are retained with a ring nut which is undone by a special tool.
Whilst they can be undone without a tool, sometimes they're easy, sometimes the aluminium the nut is made from corrodes to the steel of the fuel tank...
Well I popped out at lunch and picked this maintenance charger up at my local Lidl for £12.99.
So a quick review in case others think it worthy of purchase.

Spent this weekend in Voorburg, Holland as a very good Russian friend of ours had moored his tallship www.shtandart.com in the port of Scheveningen (near The Hague) for a special party event. While there (when not on-board!) I came across there two lovely old MBs in the little town of Voorburg...
I went to change my plugs at the weekend as have no idea when they were changed by the last owner. Cheap and simple job and have done it tons of times before on previous cars.
First time I have done it on my M119 R129 SL60 though. No problems at all getting to the plugs but my 22mm spark plug...
Hi,
Just wondering what the Mercedes that Nicholas Cage doesn't steal in Gone in 60 Seconds is. It's the one when he notices the cops might be watching him.
I think it's a W124 coupe.
The film is a 2000, and they go on about some "special key" that is used. Yet the key ithey show in...

There seems to be some confusion on this forum and with Mercedes themselves as to whether you can buy Mercedes special tools from Mercedes parts stores. I rang three local dealers (Beaconfield, Readng and Slough) and all said no sorry sir, you cannot buy tools form us. They all pointed me to a...
