Default 260e troubleshooting

I have several issues for you experts out there. #1) The fuel gauge indicator is acting erratic as I drive. Does any one have the electrical schematic for the fuel indicator system?
#2) It's very hot here in Kansas and the A/C is blowing cold out the dash vents and HOT out the over dash (defrost) vents. HELP!
#3) I am in need of a PDF of the owners manual, but http://www.mbusa.com/owners/vehicle_...ers_manual.jsp says that mine is not available from their sight. can any one help with this one?

Thanks in advance!
Jetdoc.

OK, its been 5 HOT days and I have had no reply! I was hoping to have some guidance by Saturday as it is my day off and the only chance I have to work on these problems in the early morning, before we get baked. Seems sad, 18 hits but 0 replys.

More than one under dash problem? Not a clue, but I'll try to help find a manual on the car.

as an addendum to the HOT air from the windshield vents, I did some troubleshooting today and found that the solenoid (water shut off) valve, (next to the battery) seams to be functioning correctly, (extended to block water when powered). So how else can the hot water be passing thru?

Default AC/heat

solenoid (water shut off) disconnect wires to it and disconnect the AUX water pump on passenger side wheel well then see if that cures your problem but I think it will be the climate control unit get one at a scrap yard find a late model one
