Hello,
I have a W208 CLK 230K which I have owned from new and has been sorn for the last 7 years. I used to start it on a weekly basis but when I removed the battery to use on another car it ended up sitting in the garage and not being started for the last 3 years.
Got a new battery but is there any checks I should do before starting after 2 years of sitting there. I don't want to start it up and have something drastically go wrong.
I will put fresh fuel as I know whats in the tank is probably past its prime.
