I had a couple of the rail pins that I could not get to budge using the 6mm bolt and washers method when I was rebuilding the '78 SLC's M117. Luckily, Skippy had the proper ball bearing puller - I borrowed it and the pins came out easy as pie . . .
I made a tool for removing the injector pock rings by grinding out all but the prongs on an old socket. I keep ALL the MB special tools in one drawer of the tool box - with a few other special tools. Now my only problem is remembering that I have it at all. All the Cessna special tools are in one place, regardless of the job - On Sat, Dec 23, 2017 at 5:30 PM, Curley McLain via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > The economics of buying a $40 to $200 tool that you use once or maybe > twice are not favorable. <snip> > > How about pulling the pins for timing chain rails?
