Engine overhaul - video 16 part 2 valves removal In Part 1, we showed the basic techniques for disassembling the valves and valve springs. We did this on a fairly new cylinder head.
When you`re dealing with a used cylinder head, disassembly may be a little less smooth.
Engine diagnostics - video 01 crankshaft end play In the first video of this new series, we will look at how to measure the crankshaft end play. Measuring the crankshaft end play, will help you estimate if your engine needs a total overhaul. If the result of the measurement is greater than or equal to 0.15 millimeters, then the crankshaft clearance is too large, and a total engine overhaul is recommended.
Engine overhaul - video 16 part 1 valves removal In this first part of video 16, we disassemble cylinder head valves and valve springs. In the first part, we start by demonstrating the tools and techniques used, and disassemble the valves of a relatively new cylinder head.
the valve clearance explained The valves of the VW boxer engine ensure that the petrol air mixture can be fed into the cylinders (through the inlet valves), and that after compression this mixture can be discharged through the exhaust (exhaust valves). An accurate adjustment of the valves is of utmost importance for the proper functioning of your engine.
Engine diagnostics - video 04 part 2 valves and valve springs In the second and third parts of this video, we will measure valve spring pressure. We begin in part 2 by measuring the valve spring pressure at open valve. Also known as the valve spring pressure at maximum valve lift. In part 3, we will measure the valve spring pressure at installed length.
Engine overhaul - video 12 the flywheel In this video, we'll explain how to disassemble and assemble the flywheel, and what tools you'll need to do so. To disassemble the flywheel, you will need to unscrew the gland nut. This nut is attached with a torque of 350 Nm, it will require some force to loosen.
Engine diagnostics - video 02 BONUS defective rockers arm parts In video two of this series, we measured the rocker arm parts, and compared them to the wear limits listed by the VW workshop manual. In this video, we will show examples of rocker arm parts that are in less good condition than these of our AB 1300 engine from video two. This should help, to better diagnose the rocker arm parts.
Engine adjustment - video 02 adjusting the rocker arms In the first video of this series, we adjusted the valve clearance. In addition to the valve clearance, the position of the rocker arm relative to the valve stem, is also a very important setting. If a rocker arm is not positioned correctly, it can be adjusted, which is called shimming.
oil leakage If you are planning to buy a classic Volkswagen, you will certainly take a look under the engine lid and under the car. If it's dirty both at the bottom and under the bonnet, it doesn't offer much trust. The engine will need a lot of attention in the coming weeks, but how bad is it?
