Inherited 1989 560SL...needs some work
Ok...So I inherited a 1989 560sl which has about 100k miles on it and needs some work. The car was my dads. I noticed that the upper middle vents do not work, and the heat seems to come on when it feels like it. Also the windows roll much slower then I remember from when I was a kid. Steering is sloppy. I think I will need to replace the soft top. It also seems to be running rich, because I smell the gasoline pretty strongly in the garage.
Does anyone have any pointers on where to start? I am a car guy, but do not know Benzes. I am thinking of a general tune up and replacing the alternator as first steps. I open to suggestions from those with experience. Thanks.
