Is there a way to test the fuel sender on my '79 450sl?

what kind of sender style is it. is a float on a stick or what kind is it. if it is the typical MB one pull it out of the tank and operate it and just watch it and do the physical inspection first. then take a digital multimeter and the resistance should change as the float moves.
(sorry if my spelling is bad)

The resistance values for your immersion transmitter can be found on page 2 here(same method of testing)
