Info on checking your rod bolts. a bad rod bolt will still click your torque wrench and you will install not knowing. A bad rod bolt will show up on a stretch gauge, replace that bolt and continue assembling, You will thank me later! more videos and info visit our website.

if you have code 196 popping up on your handheld after you've sent or saved an input that means it is not saving this is a neat little feature that can be used to block unwanted changes made to the unit an example would be you have a shop block the customer from making changes

    Two things wrong here 1st the expander gap and oil ring gap should be between 90° and 120° apart. 2nd The oil ring gaps should never be in lined or even closely in lined with the piston pins as the clip area and hollow retains oil that is thrust forward when the piston suddenly changes direction.

    Pops brought home a NIC(new in the crate) 1962 Type 3 Squareback from Munich when he was discharged from the 101st. Uncrated and drove from the New York City docks to The Pac Northwest. The local VDub dealer loved it and did a bunch of work. Once the Twin Solex carb kits were available, the purchase was made, along with a exhaust upgrade. 1500cc of Fury!!. Many trips, from coast to coast. Wish we would have kept it.

I am familiar with the workings of the aircooled engine but am now beginning to gain knowledge so as to make a good decision of which way to go for an engine for my 68’ type 1. I’ll be in touch when I have my questions ready. Thank you from the UK.
