Cutting open a Mercedes R107 fuel tank…and modifying a non OEM tank

In this video, we cut open an old Mercedes R107 fuel tank and take a look to see what’s inside. Some of the R107 Mercedes fuel tanks which are for sale, have non-standard fittings for the fuel strainer and are not suitable for the early SL fuel sender units. This video shows you how you can potentially modify a new style tank and use it for an old SL.
