need timing chain crimper for m119
 
Hello everybody.
I am in need of timing chain crimper for m119 motor. I will be changing timing chain guides (3 inner and top,maybe tensioner guide as well) and will also change timing chain in 1992 500sel. Does anybody have chain crimper? Either to loan or to sell. I really need one soon.
Thanks for any help.

There is one in the rental program. You may have to wait though.

If you've never changed the timing chain on a M119 engine - DO YOUR HOME WORK before you start. If your planning to roll the new chain in, you'll need at least 3 people to help to keep the chain on the camshafts. There are numerous tips and steps regarding this job that the pros use. Needless to say, this is a major job and I would not recommend it for a DIYer. I'm speaking from experience. :) I'm a seasoned DIYer, but my next chain replacment on a M119 will be taken to the shop. I've done chains on other models of cars and nothing compares to the M119.
