As stated in an earlier post, don't feed it into the intake system above the throttle plate (the air cleaner side). You want it to atomize and coat the parts. The further it has to travel, the more likely it will find a place to pool (like where it would bang into the closed or barely open throttle plate).
Did you do it on the 560sl yet? I am interested in doing this on my 420sel and since they are basically the same I would like to know how it came out and where you fed the line from. Thanks.
