Re: [MBZ] Cleaning fuel sender

[dan penoff.com via Mercedes]

I highly endorse MBoC based on several transactions. While I get a good 
(wholesale) discount from my local dealer, and exemplary service, there are 
times when it just doesn’t make sense to pay their price when I can get it for 
much less fro Covington. Even with shipping I come out ahead, even more so 
because I don’t pay sales tax.

My dealer said they would meet MBoC’s prices, but the one time I gave them the 
opportunity they balked and said they couldn’t do it because it was below 
wholesale. If it’s a relatively inexpensive part, fine, I’ll pay the extra coin 
to my dealer because they give me fantastic service and can get me stuff 
overnight if necessary. However, if the difference is substantial, I’ll go to 
MBoC.

Case in point:

I needed the “guts” for my driver’s side exterior rear view mirror because the 
mechanism that makes it fold was borked. List was around $300, my local price 
was around $240, MBoC was under $200 including shipping. No brainer.

If it’s large or heavy it likely won’t be a deal because of the shipping cost, 
but otherwise, they’re the rock bottom on prices from what I’ve found.

I recently stumbled upon Keyes Mercedes in CA. Their prices for many things
are lower than most I've seen online.

For example:
Rubber mat 108-684-01-05
https://parts.keyesmercedes.com/oem-parts/mercedes-benz-rubber-mat-1086840105

Retail $240, their price $168.48 (29.8% discount). You'd avoid sales tax
being outside CA.

They might still be available new from MB. I just bought one for my 108.
Took apart the old one and cleaned it (with DeOxIT) to keep as a spare.

It appears the sender is still available but is around $200.  I do not 
believe I have one laying around as it appears to be only for late gas 116.

These older floats are pretty delicate. I would disassemble it and see what
