On a older car (without computers) 1979-older? - there should be NO spark.
I have heard of a LOT of electrical problems with the ML320.
Some have resulted in fires that destroyed the entire car.

this is very dangerous. do not spark anything.
batteries go boom when you do this.
besides you can do a lot of damage to electrical
components.
