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.
crankshaft pulley removal Removing the crankshaft pulley on an engine that has run 100,000 km and more is best not done with just a hammer and brute force. You would prefer to reuse the original crankshaft pulley on your engine, were it not for the budget, also for the factory originality.
Engine overhaul - video 06 find the TDC compression stroke We will explain in this video how to determine the top dead center, as well as which of the two top dead center moments is this one from the compression stroke. This is important in order to properly position the distributor drive shaft. Properly understanding how a four-stroke engine works is essential when you begin an engine overhaul.
Engine diagnostics - video 04 part 2 valves and valve springs In the second and third parts of this video, we will measure valve spring pressure. We begin in part 2 by measuring the valve spring pressure at open valve. Also known as the valve spring pressure at maximum valve lift. In part 3, we will measure the valve spring pressure at installed length.
mesuring the compression How can you determine very objectively how much wear the engine has? An indication of the wear level can be obtained by performing a compression measurement, the engine compression determines the power of your VW. Anyone can perform a compression measurement on an air-cooled or water-cooled VW.
Engine overhaul - video 05 install the distributor drive shaft This is the continuation of video 04, we are now going to install the distributor drive shaft, both on an already rebuilt Volkswagen Type 1 engine and on a split Type 1 crankcase. We pay a lot of attention to the correct positioning of the drive shaft at the beginning of this video series, because it is crucial to be able to adjust the ignition properly, later, when the engine is overhauled.
Engine overhaul - video 16 part 2 valves removal In Part 1, we showed the basic techniques for disassembling the valves and valve springs. We did this on a fairly new cylinder head.
When you`re dealing with a used cylinder head, disassembly may be a little less smooth.
Engine diagnostics - video 04 part 1 valves and valve springs In video 16 of the engine overhaul series, we disassembled the valves and valve springs.
Not all of the cylinder heads we showed were in good condition, this does not mean that all parts need to be replaced. After a thorough diagnosis, it will show if the valves and valve springs are still reusable. This video discusses valve and valve spring diagnosis. It consists of four parts.
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.
