the injectors

themselves seldom leak. so carefully check the small fabric fuel return lines and the hard lines. the hard lines will take a lot of torque so dont be afraid to tighten them.

sometimes you can get the turns to work by fiddling with the flasher, which is under the switch, just push in the small edges of it and pull straight up. if that doesnt work replace it.

the door locks are prob a vac issue, check the lines. there is a big junction under the floor mat on the pass side for that too.

the lights prb need new bulbs. not to hard a job. be sure to know how to get the dash out. dont pry it. there are some screws up in the top of the opening for the ash tray.

sounds like you got a pretty nice benz there, enjoy. t hey are pretty mechanic friendly once you get to know them. you will hardly ever break a bolt. and after workinng on a benz you will hate working on other cars.
