    I bought a vw van that had a terrible clanking noise from the engine. I couldn't wait to pull it apart to see the cause. Two hours later I was looking at a crankshaft that was broken in half inside the centre main bearing, at the same angle as the oil drilling. The clanking was caused by one half under load, followed by the other half as the cylinders fired.. This was in Australia, and I knew the driver, he was always labouring the engine, which caused the break. But I had never seen or heard of a broken VW crankshaft before.

    Your videos are always fantastic. As an amateur engine builder, I've been so happy to go over your engine build vids again prior to my attempts. Alas, I wish I had access to a shop/tools/machining you have access to. There's nothing remotely around me so I'm left to my own learn from books and videos!

    Can’t believe you use ultra grey, Porsche and motorcycle manufactures use an anaerobic sealant for engine case half’s. Honda and Yamaha have an excellent product. I have used permatex right stuff which is very good as well.

    I enjoyed watching this video for myself at nearly 60 years of age it’s been many years since i’ve had a VW Aircooled engine opened up. ironically my last one was a early 70s Beetle in 1984 ish i bought a crappy Bug that was running on 2 Cylinders it drove across town home. at Midnight and with a Flashlight we saw twomPlugs dangling on their a wires out of the Heads the next day i discovered those Heads were stripped out and my local VW Repair shop sold me my very first set of Heliocoils and told me how to install them which i did the motor was a Leaky one and i pulled it to put in a newcGasket set that came fromBrazill complete with 4 Pistons and New Rings for $117.00 everyone told me they were Junk and not last that Bug was one i gave my little Sister as a College Car she beat the hell out of it and drove it for a few years then gave it back to me running years later i pulled the motor and gave the Rusted body and Pan to a ScrapYard and from what I know that motor is still running in its 4th or 5th Air Cooled VW over 35 years later FYI the VW Enthusiasts in my Home town is a small group and a few. oth them i still keep in touch with and have given me tabs on that Engine Block for funsies i grew up,inSouth Florida and we had a Business there called The Beetle Shop that had a large group of Bikers working there and that shop built high performance Motors for the localKit Car Company Classic Motor Carraiges that built a lot of the nicer Porsche Speedster Replicas using Type 1 VW Pans and engines that shop bored and Stroked the Blocks and for years they used a Shortened Transporter Bus as their Shop,Truck it was so rediculously shortened the People in the Front Seats could touch the rear Window from that position it was made to,look like.a Surfer Bus and i’ve seen them pull the front Wheels off the ground from a dead Stop ! We had that and a old Fiberglass Boat someone put on a Modified VW Pan that has Survived into a Marketing Tool for acRea Estate Company Locally i saw it 20 years ago and it looked like it could be a runner but was used as a Static display Vehicle only it was Parked in A Restaraunts Parking area with a lot of Traffic goin by it daily

  • @gregparker9943
    @gregparker9943 Před 2 lety +4

    Thank you for sharing your build. Although, I do have several questions. 1. Self sealing nuts are not designed the way you installed them, 2. I noticed that you did not adjust the torque wrench for the smaller studs and allow for the nylock added frictional torque value to add to the final torque for the 8mm nuts. 3. During your torquing of the main studs, I noticed the torque wrench clicked, yet you went further after the click. Is this a standard practice in building a VW engine? My other question was the head studs were not installed during the assembly of the case halves. Are you installing them after the case is torqued? I would be worried during installation of the head studs might push any metal chips through the inside of the engine. Is that something not to be overly concerned about, or am I over thinking things? Thank you.
