I would like to see that. Keen to do it myself then chuck in the SPV egr valve. Figure it is not going to be as useful on an already dirty manifold.

I'm happy to take some pics next time I do a tappet adjustment at work. I'll then write up a step by step guide for anyone keen to DIY but looking for some guidance.

How about I send you the draft for comment? I'm getting nowhere with it. Feels too much like hard work and I forgot where I was up to :oops:

Just as a heads up for anyone (I don't know what anyone else has done mind you) but today I was quoted about $190 just for all the seals you will need if doing your own tappets. $145 for the tappet adjustment seal kit (14 odd seals), and the rocker cover bolt seals (8 of @ $6 each).

That's if you want to replace all your seals at the same time that is. I also have an ML so in not sure how different that will be with the seal kits etc.
