Dave, dry gas will dry up any residual moisture/water that accumulated in the tank while the car sat parked for 4 or 5 months. The gas tank probably wasn't full as is recommended when storing a car for extended periods. Using Stabil is also a good idea for short-term storage. From your description of the floating ride this 190E likely needs new shocks/struts ... buy Bilsteins to restore the original ride quality. Of course, the car may need many other components if it's been neglected for years. Best to have a knowledgeable tech evaluate the car's overall condition before throwing money at the more obvious problems. It could be a real money pit.
