(Double) Checking Timing Chain Stretch
Morning Merc-guru's,

Finally got around to checking the timing chain (err...remembered to check it) when doing my normal (maintenance) valve adjustment. Having never done it before I wanted to get confirmation that I'm reading this right...I used the 2 mm method described in the FSM...and it looks like I'm at 12* (If I'm reading the FSM correctly, the target is 11* so I'm pretty happy) If I'm reading this right. Thoughts?
