@Youngclassicamgso the rails are less then 10 years old and timing chain stretch is below 3 degrees at either bank? Tensioner is Genuine and per the rails is less then 10 years old? It has a date stamp on it you could provide a photo of that. I don't much want to have to invest in a full round of timing in addition to other work. Any luck with under rear window/through the portals photos documenting No Rust....Have been down this path as well and it is Not an enjoyable one.
Timing chain/tensioner and rails? Photos of under the rear window? Thank you!
Few questions before diving in: Are all the wheels Crack free? Resolution is bad enough that I ca not make it out. Timing chain, chain tensioner and rails? Any record of this work being done? Pictures of current timing/chain stretch from when the valve covers were off? Those AMG stickers are valve adjustment specs. Does this car have solid lifters? A photo inside the oil fill cap will show it there are solid lifter clips or not, again baring any photos from when work was completed. Really would be great to have photos of the body portals under the rear window, the One weak spot rust wise on a C126, does require half climbing into the trunk to get some good shots and video. Seat belt presenters, no mention that I saw if they are functioning properly. Thank you.
