1995 Mercedes-Benz SL320 SL500 SL600 R129 Owners Manual

Fuel Requirements
Gasoline Additives
Use only Premium unleaded
meeting ASTM standard D 439:
The ratio of Methanol to gasoline
must not exceed 3% plus additional
A major concern among engine
manufacturers is carbon build up
caused by gasoline. Mercedes- Benz
recommends to use only quality gasoline
containing additives that prevent the
build up of carbon deposits.
After an extended period of using fuels
without such additives, carbon deposits
can build up especially on the intake
valves and in the combustion area,
leading to engine performance
problems such as:
The octane number (posted at the
pump) must be 91min. It is an
average of both, the Research (R)
octane number and the Motor (M)
octane number: [(R + M)/2]. This
is also known as ANTI-KNOCK
INDEX.
Using mixtures of Ethanol and
Methanol is not allowed. Gasohol,
which contains 10% Ethanol and
90% unleaded gasoline, can be used.
These blends must also meet all
other fuel requirements such as
resistance to spark knock, boiling
range, vapor pressure etc..
Unleaded gasoline containing
oxygenates such as Ethanol, I PA,
IBA and TBA can be used provided
the ratio of any one of these
• warm-up hesitation,
• unstable idle,
• knocking/pinging,
oxygenates to gasoline does not
exceed 10%, MTBE not to exceed 15%.
• misfire
• power loss.
Do not blend other specific fuel
additives with fuel. They only result in
unnecessary cost, and may be harmful to
the engine operation. Damage or
malfunctions resulting from poor fuel
quality or from blending specific fuel
additives are not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.

Richard Conrad on Apr 17, 2016. Great resource

My owner's manual has been damaged and unreadable in certain areas. This was a tremendous resource!

This cat is awesome. I love how sturdy the body is while making turns or passing through man holes. This is the type of car body I know will save my life in accidents. My other Benz a C320 saved my spouse's life before it was totaled. An inconsiderate, mindless driver who was trying to beat a red light hit my Benz. God Bless my spouse only suffered a contusion & lacerations on his left arm. If you saw my Benz uou will be amazed how little injuries my spouse suffered. My current SL500 is actually the teplacementv. fot my beloved C320. German metal is the best. Gives you security & confidence driving among crazy drivers around the world.

Just excellent that I was fortunate to find this site.
Please note that pages 35 and 37 have over-written script from other pages. This makes it difficult, but not impossible, to read those contents. Fortunately, they are not critical to my needs.


DANIEL VALENTINE on Dec 28, 2013.

i bought a car and then discovered it didn't have the owners manual with it. not much fun having a foreign make car and not knowing how to work anything. thanks for your help.

  1. I do have one, but Very nice to have available here ! I was wondering if I should make a copy of mine just so Id have one, in case of losing it? But no need, great to have one available as you supplied. Thanks

    Would you know by chance where I could get a Service Manual, or Shop Manual for the 94 SL 600 ? Would really like one ! Thanks again, Merv
