Engine overhaul - video 07 TDC compression in practice In video six, we explained the operation of the four-stroke internal combustion engine through animations. In this video we will look at how to determine the top dead centre of cylinder 1 in practice. We will also learn how to find the compression stroke of cylinder 1, different techniques will be shown.
Engine overhaul - video 10 the crankshaft pulley In this tenth video, we will show how to disassemble and reassemble the crankshaft pulley. We will use special tools for this, standard tools, as well as a homemade pulley puller. If you don't have the right tools and use the right technique, chances are you will warp the crankshaft pulley, you really don't want that. So watch this video carefully before you start this job.
crankshaft end play Whether an oil leak is caused by a defective crankshaft seal or O-ring/packaging is not always easy to determine. At the bottom of the engine, near the flywheel, where the gearbox and the engine are connected to each other, you will see traces of engine oil.
Engine diagnostics - video 04 part 1 valves and valve springs In video 16 of the engine overhaul series, we disassembled the valves and valve springs.
Not all of the cylinder heads we showed were in good condition, this does not mean that all parts need to be replaced. After a thorough diagnosis, it will show if the valves and valve springs are still reusable. This video discusses valve and valve spring diagnosis. It consists of four parts.
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.
oil seals All rotating parts fitted with bearings lubricated by oil or grease, such as crankshafts, transmission shafts, drive shafts, steering rods, etc., must be sealed. In our classic VW's we find two types of oil seals, namely the static and the dynamic (lip seal) oil seals.
Engine overhaul - video 09 the fuel pump We will disassemble and reassemble the mechanical fuel pump from a VW Type 1 engine with carburetor in this video. The electric fuel pump is discussed in another video. The fuel pump pushrod and the fuel pump flange get extra attention in this video.
crankshaft seal replacement If you find that the crankshaft clearance is outside the factory specifications, replacing the crankshaft seal will not be a solution for the oil leak you have identified. If the crankshaft clearance is less than 0.30 mm, it makes sense to replace the oil seal, otherwise a total engine overhaul is the only worthwhile option.
Engine diagnostics - video 02 rockers and rocker arm In video fourteen of our engine overhaul video series, we disassembled and reassembled the rocker arms and rocker shaft. We will diagnose the rocker arms and rocker shaft in this video. Additional attention will be paid to the adjusting screws and adjusting nuts.
Engine overhaul - video 08 ignition time of cylinder 1 In this video we will determine the ignition timing of cylinder 1. This mark will be needed to correctly position the distributor drive shaft during assembly, as well as for ignition advance adjustment once the Type 1 Volkswagen engine is rebuilt.
