Subject: Re: [MBZ] 300D timing chain replacement
You need 2 people, one to feed chain, one to turn the engine over.
First things first though, why are you changing it? Have you checked to
see if its stretched?

Contemplaing doing timing chain overdue at 270K miles. I have been doing
some research. It appears a chain buddy;, ie standby helper is required.
Can this job be done totally solo? I have not met any of my neighbors or
friends/wifes/kids or enemies who gives a rats a-- for my 77 300D or
would
be worthy or interested in helping.
Any thoughts please. Can it be done solo? Thanks
