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 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.
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 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.
mixture preheating The engine is stopped as a result of poor combustion. This bad combustion is often caused by a, at that moment, wrong composition of the fuel in the cylinders. Because of this bad combustion, the engine does not deliver the desired power and you can feel this in the form of stuttering of the engine.
Engine overhaul - video 14 rockers and pushrods In this video we will show how to disassemble and reassemble the rocker arms and pushrods. We will discuss the diagnosis of the rockers and pushrods in our other video series, which deals with engine diagnosis. How to adjust the rockers, an action also known as shimming, can be seen in our video series on engine adjustment.
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.
HPMX carburetors The most famous double carburettors are the Weber IDF and the Dellorto DRLA. Since a few years there is a new player on the market, namely the HPMX carburettor. This is marketed by EMPI and is also sold as a complete set, including manifolds, air filters, linkage and mounting material.
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.
