    Timing Chain Problems?

    New engine noise developed at the end of a long road trip on my 95 L400 4m40. Initially, it sounded like it was coming from the dash board.

    4M40 Head Removal - Process and Questions

    Over the course of the last week or so here I’ve been in the process of removing all the attached components to the head of my 2.8 L 4M40. I’ve ran into a couple snags but found some solutions to them (completely seized and rusted exhaust manifold bolts) but this one in particularly I can’t...
