A Real Nice 1965 Brazilian VW Bus

Pretty much nothing mechanical works. What I say about the rear brakes is a fact. Check the play at the lever with adjusters backed off. Be sure the shoes are fully engaged in adjusters and wheel cylinder pistons with pistons pressed in all the way (You'll need to do this and the following each time you check with th springs installed). The speader bar can prevent this because the slots on the ...

This works. Fixing it with an assembled engine is hard but possible. Changing the tube during assembly is easy. Change the tube! Forgot to mention you'll need to drill a hole in the channel for draining. The pickup tube can be withdrawn and reinserted from the bore (not from the engine) with engine assmbled. Withdraw the tube to enable access with a 1/8 drill bit. Place hole near bottom of chan...

This is how you do it so it'll really last and have a less throw than it had when the car brand new. Somehow the video is flipped so left is right and right is left. PS - I'm not a member of the "You just go like this and it'll be cool" club. Details matter. They make things viable - ready for a trip to Saturn and beyond. I'm not here to set speed records for engine assembly and such. The only ...

    Incidentally, the o ring for the cover (end cap) Stoddard part number is SIC 351 999 00 or 901 351 999 00. It doesn't come with the kit.

      There's a water hose that's on with a trigger on the hose. And the plug wires aren't junk and the spark plug is in the cylinder head. So no risk.

    Shouldn’t you be using ether or starting fluid for that? Won’t the brakekleen harm seals or gaskets? Asking seriously Ive never seen this done with brake cleaner

      It's flammable so wotks. Even WD40 will work. They make a tool specifically for this that uses propane. I have a ttrigger nozzle on a water hose on the floor because a bad spark plug wire can ignite this. I think intake gasket replacement is more of a maintenance thing that something replaced only when leaking or rebuilding the engine.Air leaks burn valves.

    Also you didn't show welding the bracket back in and what to do about getting the heat off the bracket and not melting the new bushing, i use a water spray bottle after welding each spot weld to stop the heat, also have a wet rag under the rod and around the rod so no slag sticks to the rod. Grat video.

    • @gorporpio
      @gorporpio Před rokem

      You dont need to weld it on. You use one bolt to hold it up before attempting to install the shifter. The shifter is then installed with one bolt loosely then you can take the other bolt out and use it for the second bolt for the shifter. It's a little tricky but not too bad. By not welding you'll have more adjustment because the retainer isn't stationary. The one I did prior to the one in this video had so little left to right movement in neutral it would favor either 1/2 or 3/4. Adjustment wouldn't do it. I had to put a washer between the lockout plate and the tunnel (or maybe between the lockout plate and the base - can't remember) for each bolt and it was perfect. Adding the washers changed the fulcrum point .

  • @denisament6718
    @denisament6718 Před rokem

    You are correct, replacing the bracket and bushing is best because I've seen the original bracket worn and it makes sharp edges on the bracket and it cuts through the new replacement bushing. I've seen them broken so it has to be replaced. More people need to see your video, I've been looking for someone that addressed this issue, THANKS!
