damn i wanted the same seat cover for my old kadett you sold thm to me congrats
Also I believe there is a VW service bulletin about cutting v shape groove into the connecting rod side on the big end to fling oil up under the pistons. th-cam.com/video/7wuNuuEoN7Y/w-d-xo.htmlsi=tG-09KUEV8UQXBvS
@@1975Kombi1 ooo that's very interesting
I think there is a notice from vw on removing the cylinder sealing gaskets. Going with no seals.
@@1975Kombi1 thank you I've been told a few times and would definitely not put them in next time. But currently still running and driving great lol
Great video. I'm restoring my 1976 automatic VW T2 camper and this video really came in handy.
@@acbrosnan1 that's awesome, I'm glad it could help!
Beautful
Exelente explicación le veo desde Puerto Rico 😊
I want to carry a spare Distributor for my 76 Bus. 1800cc fuel injected no electronic ignition. I can't seem to find a Distributor for a type 4 motor with vacuum assist, so that little space ship thing attached. Can you please tell me where I can find this?. Bus Depot and West Coast Metrics aren't sure which one goes with it. Thanks.
Is that A A/C COMPRESSOR ON YOUR LEFT HAND SIDE . MINUTE 24:13 . AND IF THERE IS can you plz get me the part# Thanks
Yes it is a ac bus, I will look when I get the chance. Any idea where eit would be on the compressor?

Any info on the A/C compressor
Do you know if there’s anyone in the Albuquerque area that does VW machine work?
very informative video..
purple power will etch and corrode aluminum btw
Good to know! Thank you
I have to do new jugs and pistons on my 73 vw bus. I have the parts its the time i need at the moment. But soon ill have my van on the road again. My engine is original but i had a carburetor leak and it washed out 2 cylinders bad. It washed out #1 cylinder and essentialy destroyed it.
The accessory part is much more complete than those in Brazil. Congratulations to the project!!!
You have no idea how important this video has been I have a 1977 bus automatic and it appears to have a broken flex plate in it trying to find the location to get those torque converter bolts out will you solve that mystery thank you
Great to hear, I'm glad one of my videos is helping!
"Corolla" 😂 very nice!
Thanks!
Along for the ride..👍🏴
As someone else commented the rod is your "kickdown rod" I only know this because my automatic was missing this piece. lol It was tough to find one too! I did find one though & then the previous owner actually called me literally the day after I got a used one and said he found "a rod thing that must go with the bus" lol Edit: What kind of trans fluid do you use for yours?
Thank you, figured it out adjusted it correctly and actually works hahha
I am so Seasick. slow the roll. lol
As a automatic bus owner as well & still learning, could you at some point take time to explain how to do timing, carb adjustments, etc? I could never find any videos with guys who have automatics! I love to learn how to do it myself.
Hard work paying off 👍
Nice work m8 not many vws don’t leak ,most mark there spot
Very true, this one has been amazing some how
Nice automatic! I have an automatic as well & actually enjoy driving it. I had to figure out how to get a kick rod to work and to turn my carb backwards for it to all work together. Im still a newb in this but we set my idle a little high as well. Once I put it in gear then, it drops down to a good place.
Yeah the autos are definitely interesting, but it's been a blast to drive either way.
@hifivegarage6977 hell yeah!! I appreciate the videos on the engine build too. Id love to find an engine to start tearing apart and learn to rebuild myself. Thanks brother, enjoy your bus man!
Your videos are extremely helpful...Thank you for putting them together. I noticed that you placed a thin gasket between the jug and case. If you were to do it over again would you recommend adding RTV as well? ...or has this held up pretty great for you so far.
Thank you!!! So far the motor has been amazing. Some people on here recommended not using the gaskets. If anything use the copper spray like you would on a head gasket I would definitely not use rtv. Thank you for watching.
The wire in question is probably for the heater booster fan. You'd have a wire directly from the battery, another wire directly from the alternator, and a 3rd wire (red with white stripe) that goes to the fuse box.
Also, is there a reason you removed the cooling flaps from the fan housing? Similarly the thermostat, pulley, and cable?
This motor didn't have any on it and I only had pieces from the other motor. Decided that being in New mexico ide give it a shot without
@@hifivegarage6977 You just made a BIG mistake leaving out those flaps ........Just because the geniuses before you left them out does not mean it is ok to follow suit .....Learn how systems work so you can make good decisions ..... Besides not having a motor that will warm up correctly day or night regardless of the state you live in and all the benefits of that like better interior heat in the cold times and even motor expansion of all it's parts , by leaving out the flap on the left side that goes over the oil cooling tower that lays on it's side you just goofed .....How is the fan blown air supposed to make a 90 degree turn downward to go through the oil cooler's vertical openings without that flap ? It won't ....The cooling air will just fly over the top of the cooler ....If you had that flap installed which lays like your cupped hand when in the warmed up position, that flap down, you will notice a gap under the flap's pivot point .....Some of the cooling air will go into that slot and the cupped shape will force that air downward through the cooling tower's vertical openings ..... The original style warm up thermostats are now available new from a great place called "Awesome Powdercoat " ......He also has a pretty good rap about how these work generally on his site ...... Do not try to use the Mexican style thermostats on any aircooled VW motor .......
It's easiest to not even deal with the push rod tubes until the heads are on and torqued down. The tubes can go on and off without touching the heads.
Yeah I figured that out after, I was used to building upright motors. Now I know! Thank you
@@hifivegarage6977that's why we do it, right? To learn! Now next time you'll be twice as quick.
one of the best features of the type 4 vs type 1
Awesome!!!!!!! 🎉 love the dogs too ❤
Thank you, they are the best
Awesome
Thank you
Great work. ❤
Thank you!! Means a lot!
Brad this is Daniel from O’Reillys do not sell this bug I repeat do not sell it I’m gonna buy it from you!
Been watching your whole series and have benefited from your hard earned wisdom.....tell me the bus is still up and running well?
This is amazing to hear!!! Thank you for watching it means so much. And yes the bus is still doing great. Haven't driven it as much (winter time) but come summer time I will and of course more things to come! I've taken a break from TH-cam but I will be back.
Excellent solution for the stripped threads.
Thank you!
I really wanted to watch your video, but the camera movement made me nauseous. Had to give up at 3 minutes.
My videos have gotten better and I've learned a lot. Great to hear the feedback and I hope other videos are watchable for you!
Great videos! Any tips/recommendations regarding mounting the Type 4 engine on the engine stand. I have seen posts in forums about how the mounts put stress on the transmission holes. Thanks in advance.
I though I showed how I mounted it but I can't find it. Either way I just uses a normal engine stand used the top 2 mounts and drill out where the bottom ones would mount (look in the videos you will see) and I never had issues. They also sell pre made mounts but I know they are expensive that's why I made my own
Motor looks great
Thank you! It's been running great as well!
Heads are loose… when’s last time you retorqued them? After it heats up it expands and seals up the gap… take care of it asap
That's a great idea!!! I built the motor and have been breaking it in! I will definitely re toque the heads.
You need a mechanics stethoscope...or a long screw driver to touch to different parts of the engine and then hold against your ear. Lots of things can be making that noise. When you adjusted your valves did you double check if they are hydraulic lifters? Mine are Porsche hydraulic lifters that knock before warm up. And when the oil needs changing.
Gotcha I will definitely do a little more investigating! Thank you
This was a lot of fun to watch.
I'm glad you enjoyed!
Has the motor got hydraulic lifters? could be the problem (sticking)
Whatever they come with stock so probably. That's a good idea
bus shines up nice . not to sure what that knock would be from .
Right it's a very weird noise....and it really doesn't effect it or show in the oil...so who knows.
77 busses had Fuel Injection. That single carb setup is aftermarket, hence no mechanical fuel pump.
Yes that is true! Thank you!
Maybe the transmission seals? I had a Geo Tracker (Suzuki Samurai) jeep that Lucas transmission additive restored and worked great. Added it about every 10,000 miles. No issues. Possibly when you added fluid that reduced your noise. Or maybe not. Peace
That is amazing, I would have never thought of that! That is definitely a possibility because this bus sat for so long. Thank you!
awsome coffee shop ! nice to see the bus is doing great :D
Still doing awesome
The wires hold in the push rod tubes which you can remove without pulling the heads
Yes, I figured that out later. Im use to upright motors definitely a cool feature!!
awsome job . I need to replace my windshield at some point not looking forward to it lol
Very easy process, you got this!
Dude excellent repair. Congratulations on 500 subs.
Thank you, and thank youuuu?!!
Interesting solution on the stripped threads on block. Do you think some type of heli coil might have worked? Great progress!
Thank you and Yes it definitely would have, if you could put them all the way inside to the other side of the block or take the block apart. I didn't want to take the block apart just to do a heli coil. Been months and holding great!
nice ! new or good used windshield ?
Brand new window in town $170...I will show on the next video!
