Helped a buddy change a timing chain on a 63' Bonneville when I was about 20.

Then it was just an alternator here and there for the next decade+... diddn't drive much.

Then I got the Benz and found Mercedesshop.

Who wants to wrench on a rusted toyota?... working on the Mercedes is a pleasure and a satisfaction.

Almost everything I learned was from reading and turnning the 'wrench', there is no classroom like trial and error... but the 'Tech' section on this site and the factory manual can get you to the right point of attack.
