Tim. You are saying it was not that bad? I seen instruction online somewhere and it did not look that hard to do chain swap. But as you mentioned I do need to buy crimper. I replaced guides on top and 2 inner. Guides that are deep in the engine looked OK when I looked with flash light. I was thinking to remove the cover but its cold in NY now so I have to wait untill spring at least. I also was thinking about making a roller on attached to peice of 2x4 to the lengh of new chain, connect 2 chains together to make one closed chain out of 2, tense the roller so chain is tensed and just roll it in. What do yuo guys think of that? I do need to buy 2 new chain links to do that though.
