I clearly did not notice that this was an old post!
When you did the job back then what did you use to crimp the chain?

I got the Chain Crimper on Ebay for about $125 a few months ago. I bid on it thinking I was going to be outbid or the bid would go higher than I was willing top pay. But, I lucked out an no one was interested; most likely due to the Sellers description of it as a Chain Breaker.

I was hoping to watch you use it as I have never replaced a Mercedes Timing Chain and mine own chain has aprox. 2 degrees stretch. I will not be changing my chain for a long time.
