The C-class appears to have 2 fuel tanks BUT there is only 1 as the 2 halves are joined above the driveshaft.
There are 2 sending units.
The fuel pick-up comes from one side & the return to the other side. Inside of the tank there is a passage that allows the return fuel to "pump" fuel back to the pick-up side.
