/ woodsandbarclay This video is a little longer than normal. I cover how to install rocker arms, set the initial timing,
install the front crank seal, and install the oil pan.

It's a thing of engineering beauty, one of the best designed engines ever made.
I agree 100%!!!
Just seeing this, thanks again!!!
Glad the videos are helping.
You’re killing us ! We all want to see the final episode where you crank that thing over ! I know it’s the holidays and you’re busy with the family... but come on man ! It’s been two weeks.
I'm rebuilding the injectors this weekend. Going as fast as I can!
Looking great 👍🏻nice work
Thank you! Almost there!
@@woodsandbarclay I'm alittle confused on the rope seal for the rear part of engine I saw on your previous video how you installed and cut it to length but does the other half goes on the bottom aluminum part of the oil pan? Thanks
@@performancerobert8311 yes sure does. The upper oil pan has a slot in it for the other half of the rope seal.
THanks for sharing your knowledge with W123 enthusiasts. Do you have a video on how to fine tune the injection pump timing by tilting it ?
A lot of guys just do it by Feel and listen to the engine. There's also a drip method you can look up online that's more specific. One second between drips.
$jtwoods the permatex#1 23 IS THE BEST SEALER TO USE ONMB DZL S I'VE USED IT SINCE 1966 I HAVE A 77340 WITH 858 THOUSAND MILES $83300DTURBODZL NO LEAKS EXCELLENT JOB YOUR DOING GOOD LUCK WITH THE REST OF THE JOB RON RDZL OM616
Thank you so much Ron
What sealer did you use for the upper oilpan to the engine block ?
I'm about to put my engine back together
The factory used anaerobic sealant you can buy it it's made by permutex
How did you torque the rocker arm assembly? What value did you put on? Please help. Thanks JTWoods!

Just out of curiosity, where did you pickup the field repair manual?
There's a group on Facebook called the om617 swap group. Join that group and you can download it in the files section
Where is Benz force where you sent the injection pump? Thanks John.
I don't know where they're located but check on Google and you can find their website
@@woodsandbarclay Thanks. I'm rebuilding a 6.3 w109 and will probably need the pump overhauled. Thanks for the videos!! Cheers John 🍻
@@mercedesmaintenance.6339 You need to call Pierre hadary down in Florida. He specializes in those cars and I think he would be better suited for one of those pump rebuilds. Just type in his name and the word Mercedes on Google and you will find his contact info.
@@woodsandbarclay Thank you. I talk with Pierre from time to time. Good bloke. Thanks again for taking the time to make the videos. Cheers john.
Hello Woodsand Thank-you for the excellent rebuild videos by any chance could we get together and rebuild my 617? It currently has a ticking noise in the top end that I can not seem to locate. I an in N.W. In. not far from you.
Thank you I am glad you are enjoying the videos. I wont be able to get together with you and help rebuild your engine, however, you can totally do it yourself. The manual and videos are all on my website. Just follow the instructions and spend this spring knocking it out. You can do it!!!
@@woodsandbarclay Thanks for reply Woodsand I like the way you work just wish we could have gotten together my 617 has been sitting down for over a year now would really love to rebuild it and throw it in a jeep.
@@donyuke9459 go for it just do one little piece at a time! You can do it!
When I turn my engine over by hand it makes all sorts of sounds compression sounds and other sounds.
Yes they do
Do you need a RPM pick up sensor?
That would be great do you have one you can send me?
