So after a whole lot of searching, phoning and no easy find on Google (which normally have all the answers I require) we have struck gold, so I hope that this will some day help someone in the same dilemma we ended up in.

Great!
Thnx for the update and solution.
This is what Merc owners of older Mercs need, in order to justify owning a vehicle that is challenging to the wallet.
So, this job can be done with the engine still in place?
I ask because I will probably have to do the valve lifters soon,
as there is a serious rattle going on in the head area, and dropping the engine is not an option.
