[MBZ] Special tool "Holder"

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

Well, I finally got the timer in.  I cut a new "tool" out of 30 ga tin, 
then RTFM, which sez to take out the upper pin for the lower chain guide 
below the vac pump. I had missed/forgotten that step.  With the thinner 
tin and with the last pin out, the timer slid right in. (Like the book 
sez it will)


Parts order from Tom H. should be in soon.  Tomorrow I will make sure 
everything works right without interference while turning it over a few 
times, check/set der falfe clearance, put in the oel pump, pan etc. the 
see if I can get the IP to line up in the right spline.

It is too freaking cold to be doing this.  They have been promising 55º 
but we get 38º


I should have everything finished within a day or two of getting the CC 
order in.   Have to put a seal in the PS pump too.

Isn't it a third of a tin can with something to hold it while you install
the timer?

It is to hold the timing chain out of the way while you change the 
timer for the inj pump.


I thought I could make one, but nothing is working to get the "new" 
timer back under the chain.
