that pin puller makes a great stocking stuffer for the mercedes DIYer.
Not that xmas is coming any time soon.
If you can turn the motor by hand, do so for a few complete revolutions of the chain to make sure it's clear. A good flashlight should reveal all the guides (or what's left of them).
You can test the tensioner by making sure the pool of oil in front of it is full and then hand pressing the guide rail in front of it back and forth a few times. Each time it should become more difficult to move the rail and eventually it should be near impossible to get any substantial movement.
