Thank you, I appreciate the kind comment!
Thanks for an excellent video.
Great work
My mother had two VW's. One was a 1500 that was very durable, and ran forever. The second one had a 1600 dual port engine that was very unreliable, and loved to suck the valves down into the crankcase every 30,000 miles. The 1600 dual port was one of the worst engines that Volkswagen ever made. A relative bought a VW a year after my mother bought hers that had the 1776, and it was like the 1500 for reliability. Many people installed aftermarket oil coolers on the 1600 dual port engines in an attempt to try and cool down the engine so the valves would last longer, and not go down into the crankcase. Mom's 1500 VW was still going 27 years later, and her 1600 dual port was gone in 10 years. She just couldn't stand it anymore after having to replace the engine three times due to a valve going into the crankcase.
The tear down and re assembly is lots of fun. Cleaning not so much. Very good videos!
william tanner Thank you William! I appreciate that! Yeah the cleaning part is not very fun. Where I screwed up, when the heads were still on, I should have pressure washed the engine block. But I was moving along too fast. Which was a mistake.
This video comes in handy! I’m doing a reseal and 88mm pistons this Friday after Thanksgiving. I’m chasing down some oil leaks but I don’t have to split my case. Your video is spot on to what I will be doing. Thanks!!
Great explanation!
subscribed... I just finished rebuilding my first beetle engine, and currently have 3 more on the garage floor to start on next.
Thanks very much, I just subscribed back to you. They’re a pretty basic engine. I also have some extra engines on hand. But I think I need to have the cases checked just to be safe.
Great video with several AHA! light bulb moments
Thank you. What a great video!
Thank you!
This video is 2yrs old but I've done a few vw engines. I've only assembled one of these thermostats per customer request. With that said I had gotten the inside scoop back in the 70s from a German mechanic who even had a German accent LOL 😆 to not use the thermostats. He said they are normally open and only shut during extremely cold weather and get stuck alot shut which overheats engine. This is confusing since it's cold outside. Most people run vws because they're classics and wouldn't run in winter anyways. Like I said, car will run all summer and never shut these flaps and mechanic said they only start working at like 20⁰ . I used to run in winter without thermostat and always had plenty of heat for the cab cause bug uses exhaust for heating. Remember these are designed to warm engine. Always listen to the old German mechanic who spits chewing tobacco on the floor 😆 that grossed me out back then in the 70s. It was like stepping in dog shit ! Still, what I learned was priceless and engines I built were reliable.
I was able to remove the heads and cylinders, i wish i had used this diesel soak method earlier so i could have saved the fins from damaging. Your pistons removal method helped me remove it with ease. Thanks again
Nice!!! You got it done! I was wondering about that. Thanks so much for being part of the community here.
Can’t wait for the next one. I think just for fun I’ll try and pick up a beater and just strip it down.
Garry Cahal honestly, just get a hold of a scrap one, so to speak. And just start tearing into it. It’s amazing, there’s really not much to these engines. Thanks for being here I appreciate it.
Another great video Slades. The engine is always my favorite thing to work on lol. 😄
Thank you Blake! Truthfully I like taking them apart, I don’t know why. I have one I’ll be tearing down in a couple of months here. I have too many engines on hand. LOL
@@SladesVWBeetle LOL
Good video, i enjoyed as always, especially engine videos...
I have never seen auto stick components like that oil pump...
I have never even seen an auto stick....
Greg Logan Thanks s Greg!! Lots of engine videos coming. I did a valve adjustment video today, I figured it’s easier to show on the engine stand, so it’s more clear on what to do. Those semi auto stick oil pumps are harder to get now.
LOVE THE BUG!!!
Thank you!!!
Wow! I enjoyed watching it, very useful!! Now i started to teardown mine and its Day4 and I cant get the heads off. They are stuck to the cylinders. I broke the fins on both heads and cylinders. Head is in bad shape now. I gave up on rubber mallet so now im using a regular hammer and a wood as chisel hitting the head. I used pb blaster and a little heat too but in vain. After watching ur video now im gonna ask my wife’s help to hit it with runner mallet while i pull the heads away… hope that works. If not, do you think i should soak it o/night. I was gonna get new heads and pistons anyway…
I think if you keep this Beetle bible available I'm going to build a motor off or ships and giggles
Popularity Contest i’m just gonna keep adding to the fun. LOL, looking forward to updates on Herbie!!
If the engine was rotated over without the distributor installed what am I looking at as far as replacement of the gears your talking about riding up and stripping. Will I have to disassemble the engine split the case ??
Hi Slade, just starting to rewatch this video because I'm trying to figure out why this old 40hp I picked up won't rotate a full 360 by hand. When you talked about not turning over these motors without the distributor in I think that may be the issue with this one? The distributor is in it but someone may have had it out and screwed up the gear? I'll be taking it apart anyway but if this is it may be fixable once inside?
Have you done a video addressing causes and cures for super beetle front end shimmers? That would be interesting to see.
Hey buddy I’m looking for stock 1600 DP if you have a good engine please let me know thanks and have a wonderful new year your videos are the best I love it.
Hi, can I leave the engine with no barrels and pistons on the engine over winter in my garage, I am worried about rust getting in the engine case.
Hey buddy I saw your video
Really good 😃 thanks
I appreciate your videos, they are very helpful. I have a question, when I removed the cylinder head both jugs came off too. I thought it was one unit but looking at your video the jugs are separate? Should I use a rubber mallet to try and knock the jugs off of the head? Thanks
Hi Jennifer, the jugs are separate. Yes you can use a rubber mallet to pop them off. But if you’re trying to save them. Be easy so you don’t break the cooling fins
Just found your site. It's very informative. Just got a 1970 beetle. Can you show how to drop it 2 1/2" in front. Thanks
Thanks for being her Jerry! Glad you found the community. Oddly enough I acquired a set of 2 1/2 inch drop spindles from my friend. However I won’t be doing that for a few months though.
if you put penetrative oil a few days before starting on all the bolts and etc, everything will be removed very easily.
I tried that, this one was stubborn
Hey Mr Slade.
I enjoy watching all of your informative videos.
Just a couple of questions. I have a 74 Super with autostick. I will be removing the engine this winter. To fix oil leak between the case halves, would I need to separate it or just retorted the bolts?
Also, can I just install regular new engine oil pump gears and then reinstall the autostick pump on top of it?
Would it need a new oil pump ...it has 38000 original miles on it and never been touched.
Thanks. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for the kind comment I truly appreciate that. Firstly if you’re going to pull the engine down, and start taking it apart. You’re probably better off separating the case halves, only if you feel comfortable! You can of course try to re-torque, sometimes it will help. It’s pretty much a gamble.
If your oil pump gears are very low mileage, I wouldn’t worry too much about it to be honest with you.
@@SladesVWBeetle Awesome! Thanks very much for your reply. I really appreciate that.
.....I will continue to watch your series. 🙂
@@user-pt5px6uk4w Thanks again! I truly appreciate that.
Can you tell me what connects to those 3 prongs on top of that alternator? I have that exact alternator on my 73. The guy I got the bug from cobbled a mess together, it's missing things and I'm trying to figure it all out. This is my first VW, I restore old BMWs..
There is an actual plug for a 73, I’m quite sure you know a three prong plug.
And it takes a different style of regulator. I actually have one of those here. I don’t know the color of the wires offhand though.
@Slades VW Beetle Thank you . This beetle has been robbed of the harness as well as that regulator. If you're willing to sell the harness and regulator or know of a person that has what I need I would greatly appreciate it.
Hello Slades, I'm in middle of dismantling a 1600dp in my 1970 Superbug. Engine has done 138,000 miles, no smoke. around 100psi compression on all cylinders. First time doing this. I'm not intending to split the case. but is there any advantage of removing the oil pump in this case, or could i just leave it as is? Is there anything particular you can check when the oil pump is removed? Thanks in advance, enjoy your videos very much and very helpful
First of all thanks for being here, I truly appreciate that. If it was me and I was at that mileage I would be really happy. But I would remove the oil pump, and check the gears on it. As in checking the teeth. They’re not that expensive. And with that type of mileage it probably wouldn’t be bad to put a new oil pump in. But that is just my opinion of course.
Hi all the way from South Africa, can you replace only the 1600 single port heads with a twin port heads. Thx for the great vids
You can switch over to dual port heads, I believe that’s what you were asking? And welcome, thanks for being part of the community Abri!!
Another bug bitten chap from South Africa! Didn't know there were many of us in this place.
@@shortstack4668 luv the bug, parts are expensive 😢
Hey , See the engine is sitting on a Turners Dairy milk crate. I'm from Pelham and was wondering if you were close by. Just subscribed . THANKS !!
Hi Mike, I’m not sure where Pelham is? I’m near Pittsburgh. Thanks for being here!!
Hi I had a question I recently took apart my engine and noticed a empty slot/whole top right rear of the engine block where it leads to the clutch and transmission, but I see in your video (27:42) you have a sensor there I was wondering what that sensor is and if I should worry about replacing it.
You’re OK, do not worry about that. That was placed there when new, for the technicians out the car dealerships. Those would no longer be used.
@@SladesVWBeetle oh ok thank you for the help couldn’t find much information about it
@@3wally7 You’re very welcome! Thanks for being here
Hi I’m building a desktop model of avw beetle 1500 engine 1/8 scale. It’s for my father. Would you happen to know the dimensions of the engine case in inches? Thanks, I know it’s an odd request!
I actually don’t know that off him without going into the garage. But it would depend what dimensions you need, from where to where? I hope that made sense.
Thanks! I assume length;from back to front, height; top to bottom, and width. As far as I know I can figure out the rest for now. Might be easier to figure out in metric and I can convert in a scale model calculator. Thanks so much for your help and getting back to me!
i'm guessing it went down the pushrod tube? did that motor have dished 85.5 pistons? they are very useful for making stroked stockers. i know you want to go 88 but just in case.
Scotty C no it actually didn’t have the dished pistons. I keep going back-and-forth in my mind, on what size to build next after this one. I want to try to keep dependability. But I want to be able to keep up with modern day traffic, and also of course climbing hills.
Hey you be very surprised how much you can get for that auto stick oil pump on eBay.
Brent Chastain Yeah they’re bringing some extra money that’s for sure. I have another one actually sitting on the shelf. I gave that one to a friend to help him out. Thank you for watching
My heads are still stuck. I hope its ok to pour in diesel for soaking overnight.
You should be OK doing that, it’s not like you’re going to run it with it inside of there.
this engine that you just tore apart is a dual port?
Steve Curtis Yes, I do not have any single ports here right now.
I cannot get the jugs off the pistons. I've soaked it in Marvel Miracle oil for a week now and they are not budging. Is that a bad sign? Should I just look for another engine?
Wouldn’t be looking for another engine that quickly.
So you’ve already soaked the piston rings by spraying that down into the cylinders?
I would take a rubber mallet and start hitting them, to see if that will slide them off.
Just don’t go crazy, take your time with short blunt hits. Probably going to break some of the fins on the jugs, but I would be replacing the pistons in jugs anyhow.
when you removed that oil pump with the screw driver, it tells me you an't be trusted around VW engines
Why didnt you put it on a stand?
I didn’t have a yolk for the stand at the time
@@SladesVWBeetle I have a 1600 ,doing the top end. I went to torque the heads and on of the studs pulled out of the block. It has already been oversized with a self tapping stud. What to do ? I do not want to split the case.
A very informative video. Thanks ...
Why do Americans always work off the floor ?
It looks so bumpkin ....
I've never seen anyone in Canada EVER work of the floor !
It's like the mercans haven't invented .... (wait for it ...)
It's a thing called a "work-bench" !
It's a little something that takes you all the way from the stone-age ... to looking like a professional.
Gosh ...
