Question
QUESTION: info's on the ff pls:
1. correct battery size
2. replacement part # carb repair kit X 2
3. hood & trunk emblems source
THANK YOU!

ANSWER: Hi,
I'd like to help you but I need you to rephrase the question without the abbreviations. I'm "guessing" 'ff' means 'following facts' and on #2 'replacement part # carb repair kit X 2' I'm not sure what the "X 2" means... I'm looking up the other two things you're looking for, so please follow up with a better explanation of #2 and I'll respond with what I can find out.
Also are we looking at a 280SL or a 280SE?

QUESTION: thanks for your reply! this vehicle's model is 280S quite different from 280SL and 280SE that came out the same year. on #2, part numbers for carburetor repair kits ... this has twin carbs called 'front' & 'rear'. thanks again.

Answer
HMMM... Well Lenard, I'm having trouble finding that model for some reason. BUT I'm still looking. I've heard of the dual carbs, but I'm not really familiar with them becuase I've never had the opportunity to work on the Benz, so this is new research for me.

ANyway, I just wanted to let you know I haven't given up on you, I'm still searching and searching and searching....
