I have a 1993 LHD SL500 chassis 129067-1F-086157 Engine =
119972-12-005140.
I wish to find out the total Coolant Capacity. I am getting figures of =
3-4litres up to 13/14 litres from local dealers in London (one dealer  =
even said 1.5 litres)!! The handbook says '7 litres of coolant' it is =
ambiguous as it doesn't say if this is neat coolant quantity or total =
capacity diluted at 50/50.   I have a spec sheet for a 119.960 engine =
which shows 13 litres. Would there be a difference of 6 litres between =
the 2 engine types I wonder ? Can anyone give a definitive answer =
Pleeese ?
Many thanks
Derek
