91 164L questions

Hi,

I am in the process of switching a 3.0 bottom end, and have a few questions
on the rear head, does the oil pump drive gear need to be disconected, if so
where is the access.

where are the match marks on the cam gears, I can not see any.

After I roll the engine forward and remove the rear head is there clearance
to rmove the engine without the transmision (automatic)

Also none of the features on my power seats work, the fuse is good, is there
any other common failure point for these.

I do not have the time or money to put in to the car disk right now, so any
help will be apreciated.

In ink.net,

Yup, they rarely work. Rears *never* work.

Ebay, discs can be had for about £4, whatever that is in $ I don't know.

I found that the fronts could be persuaded by giving the appropriate motor
under the seat squab a sharp smack with a blunt instrument whilst holding
down the relevant button.

And it looks so sophisticated

In their defence, I have to say that they are among the best standard-issue
seats that I ever sat in - I transferred mine them on to my next,
non-electric-seated, 164.
