I really appreciate this video. The quality, clear angles and the walkthrough style. Very informative with no BS . Definitely using these videos as reference for work on Gatsby my 92 500SEL.

Thanks for the kind words and watching the channel. Good luck on your pre-facelift W140. Working on blower motor video and interior videos now. Thanks again!

After watching this I went out to look at the fuel lines on my 96' S500...😯, my lines look worse! I can't believe I neglected this after 20 years of diligent maintenance. I learned the same thing as far as parts, so since I have the crimp tool and clamps, I'm also ordering some 9 mm fuel line. This video literally saved me from a potential engine compartment fire.
