Engine Overhaul - video 01 video series preview In this video, we will give an overview of the most important steps during the engine overhaul of a type 1 air-cooled Volkswagen engine. Each step will be discussed in a separate video. We will show special tools and even homemade tools to help the enthusiast perform their engine overhaul.
oil consumption Oil leaks are easy to rectify, sometimes even without having to remove the motor. We have saved the more difficult cases for this article, so we did not call this "oil leaks part 2" but "oil consumption". The distinction between the two is sometimes difficult to make, hopefully the information that follows will bring clarity.
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?
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 17 assemble cylinder heads In this video, we show you how to assemble the cylinder heads of a VW Type 1 engine, and what to pay particular attention to.
Engine overhaul - video 03 the workshop We show in this video what the possibilities are to work on your VW engine. If you plan to overhaul several engines, then buying a professional engine stand is recommended. If you only want to overhaul the engine of your own classic Volkswagen, then buying special tools is not cost effective. We will show all options.
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.
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.
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.
