Anyone change their lifters need help
Hi guys anyone replace their lifters yourself ,got a few questions.
From the WIS it shows 4 tools
1- M shaped holding device and straight edge ( tool 156 589 00 61 00)
2-locating plate for the front (tool 156 00 32 00)
3-safety screw for back of adjuster or compressing tool for adjuster(tool 156 01 63 00)
Here are my questions.
What tool do I absolutely need out of these tools ?
For the adjuster what is a safety screw?. And how do I know if I need this safety screw or compressing tool for the adjuster?
ThAnks guys

If you haven't done this type of work before then I highly recommend taking it to certified mechanic that has extensive knowledge and experience with AMG engines.

Changing lifters is not as easy as it sounds and can seriously damage your engine if you don't do it properly.
To replace the lifters you first have to remove the cams, this means after you put the cams back in you need to time them.
If timing is not done properly, your gonna start bending valves when your piston hits top dead center.
