I recently bought a 1983 380sl. It wasnt running when i bought it. First I cleaned or put in new fuel parts and it started running. Next day I try to start it and it wont turn over so i check the electrical and replace the disrtributor cap and rotor and it starts running again. Third day and its not starting again. Can you give me any advice?

Hello 83 380sl,

Try checking for fuel and spark. Also, check the fuel pump and make sure it is getting 12V to the pump. If you have anymore questions, feel free to contact us at 1-800-234-5594.
