Question Hey Ricky look I bought a 1988 benz 300 se in 1997 I bought it with 90k miles on it and it currently has 142k miles in 2001 I bought a civic so I parked my 300 se on my driveway at my house so now in 2008 I sold the house and the car wouldn't start so I got the car towed to a mechanic do you think you could tell me what the car probably needs and also the door that is behind the passenger door its window won't close (when the window use to close my son sat on the window while i was trying to put it up and since then it wont close
thanks
Answer Greetings!
on the not starting problem, you will have to drain the gas tank if it has been sitting for that long. you can do this back by the fuel pumps. it is the largest hose back there.Letting one of these cars sit is not good at all for it. Give it a small shot of starting fluid and see if it wants to hit. Then if it dont check for fire. also listen and see if when you cut the ignition switch on, you should hear the fuel pumps run for a few seconds.I hope this helps and thanks for your question! Ricky
