Hi Tony, thank you very much for that. Yes, I do think it is great 'library' material - probably better than perhaps even a MB workshop manual. Don't forget Tony, that there is an additional thread dealing with 6.9 headwork under the heading of "further grinding and de-coking" that I carried out on the Astral Silver 6.9 that was bought by ChrisP.
When I think back today, there are two items that I would remove prior to attempting removal of the right hand head - remove both the power brake unit, as well as the steering box. With those two items in situ, the removal and refitting are an absolute nightmare. Obviously, with the brake booster removed, it also affords the opportunity to replace the sway bar bush - a much neglected item. Regards Styria
