I will be taking care of father's MB since he passed away in early May. He was the original owner and the car has less than 75K mi. The problem is I live in TX and the car is garaged in NYC at my mother's house. I connected a trickle charger to prevent the battery from dying and I added Sta-Bil ethanol treatment to a full tank of gas.

I plan to visit quarterly and would welcome your inputs as what what else I should do.

Thanks in advance.

Why not just bring the car to Texas? Sounds like a lovely W126.

No garage space in TX.

Any suggestion on a set of maintenance manuals?

Thanks,
