He doesn't carry excess fuel in trunk. I'm not near his car to check it out myself but he is not entirely sure whether it's fuel or water or a mix since he did have a water leak via the rear window seal which he replaced. Is the access panel on the back wall of the trunk?

I assume there is a rubber connection between the filler and the tank that could be disintegrating after 30 yrs. Kleb or anyone who has removed the tank should be able to tell you for sure. No rubber seal on the neck, it's a hard part of the tank. But the sender seal could leak, and there are vent hoses coming off. Pop the access cover and check it out. The tank could also be holed. Does he carry spare fuel in the trunk? -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
