XK8 Crank Shaft Balancer Retainer Tool

How many miles and what year?

I have a Coupe and Convertible from 1999. 75k on the coupe and 120k on the convertible.

I got 230Kmi before my M62 BMW engine chain guides broke up. I know the early XK8s had inferior guides to the 4.2L but how long do they really last?

@@garyvanremortel5218 The coupe has already had this done. I did it before I started the channel. That is what made me start the channel in fact. I hope to do the convertible soon but not sure when at this time.
