Wink Pre-oiling timing chain

I picked-up on an item from Nunzi Romano that I'd like to add. Before you install the timing chain, soak the timing chain at least overnight in thin enough engine oil so that all the links get lubed, you may get better break-in and longer life out of it before stretching becomes an issue.
