EURO MODEL W124 1985 230E 167,000 MI. NEED TO REPLACE GUIDE RAIL @ THE TENSIONER. CAN THIS BE DONE BY LIFTING THE MOTOR RATHER THAN PULLING IT OUT? I FIGURE GASKETS,CHAIN,GUIDES,OIL PUMP,FRT SEAL. CAN YOU THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD CHANGE WHILE I'M IN HERE? THANKS FOR YOUR TIME:TANK

 

removing the whole engine is not necessary, but you can have more space if you do.
