One thing, always break your fill bolt loose first. That way if it is stuck you still have gear oil in it.
+Sky Ray That's a good idea!!
That is million dollar advice right there!
Please continue uploading. I'm looking into doing a restoration myself and these are great videos.
transmission fluid will always boil the first time you fil it, it has to build up temperature hardness to allow your transmission to maintain temperature during winter other wise driving at high speed while cold will blow it up
Super clean driveway no more. Parents must love that he pressure washed the grease on the cement drive.
Just looked at this: I am working on an 1977 camper van; this helps and thanks!!
Hearing your bus take forever to start makes me feel good about mine. Great video thanks !
austin, you are something else!!....way to go dude!....ty so much for the video-please keep up the videos!
+pat murphy Thanks! Appreciate the positive feedback!!
Dear Austin, do you pump your gas pedal when starting the bus? if you got carburators you must pump 1 time dowm en when starting just hold the pedal a bit down while NOT pumping.
Also you need to check you iginition my friend, i think your timingis way off or your battery is almost gone. also changing the points wil improve your starting problems. using startpilot cans is NOT a solution... you must overhaul the engine a bit to garanté the your enginelifetime will improve. i dont know what youve already done but i should change: sparkplug, contactpoints, set timing, change cables to be safe of fire, change all fuel lines and clambs, clean airfilter(s), change engine oil and sump, set ignition right, cleanout the cooling tinware and fit all new exhaust seals to improve enginelifetime, cooling, preformance, noise. and get a greasepump on your frontbeam, clean your wheelbearings and regrease them and adjust them. checkout my chanel for some igintion and timing tips. i hope your bus is getting cared how it needs. Great adventure and learning experiance for your , see ya, grtz from Belgium
+daalhoffarm I do pump it but maybe I pump too much, I'll try how you described next time. And thank you for all the advice!! I definitely need to tune and adjust the engine, as well as replacing a few things. Thanks again :-)
That last part gave me a good laugh. But I’m off to drain and fill mine. Thanks for the help!!
I have a 2004 vw T5 1.9 tdi and got it converted 3 years ago even to this day vw have used the same technology on there vans they don't change things much if it works they just Improve it slightly even the rear floor panel under the van looks the same as the t3
very awesome! you should post up some pics on the samba lots of great info there and plenty of people who can help with any issues
That oil looks like it never has been changed at all. The magnet on the screw is full of chips :O
Change your shift rod bushing and it will help alot with the shifting and vibrations in gear.
I have the whole bushing kit, I just havent pulled it all apart to install the new stuff yet haha
get a piece of chain link fence pipe for a cheater bar....I spent less than $5.00 for one and had to cut it down. I use it all the time for leverage. Works great!
+bgswtdaddyliscious I'll keep that in mind! Cheater bars are always nice to have around
Great videos man!! Please continue.
Your a great instructor..
I wonder how his transmission is doing after removing all the suspended metal? Usually this prompts it to slip
I'm loving this series
So...not an Air Cooled guy but found your videos and have enjoyed so far. What exactly are the two things up underneath that thing that appear to be aluminum Coke cans? Did you sell the Mini?
+Scott McIntyre The previous owner blocked off the ends of the heater tubes with coke cans haha, and nope it's still for sale!
harbor freight, get a extendable ratchet to use as a breaker. best $14 i ever spent
IS it a manual transmission? That oil plug looked really bad! Porkypine look to it it has a lot of chips in it. something is providing those chips... keep going it is all a great education no matter what happens. :)
Great videos.I hope you keep restoring and uploading!
My 1600 Beetle Trike has been leaking a few drops of oil here and there and it seems to have stopped.
The trouble is, that I only realised tofay that its the tranny oil and not the engine oil.
So it seems that for the last few days I might have had no oil in the transmission.
Oh hell no!
Snag is that I am disabled and cannot get underneath the bloody thing and so I dont know how the hell I will be able to sort it out?
Thanks for helping me
In Europe we call it parking brake, because it is supposed to be engaged when the car is, you guessed it; parked! 😂
I appreciate your info
What grade of fluid did you use?
80/90?
do you daily drive this? if you do you should stop lol id suggest cleaning the engine and fixing the major issues like the timing,clean the carb, new fluid lines, the motor is stupidly easy to take out id use a car jack to get the motor out take it apart clean it out and dont be afriad of not know where to start to start with take bolts off and take pictures of everything you remove then you can look back at it.
Nope I only drive it around once a week at most. I'd like to pull the engine out at some point to address everything, I just don't have the time or space to do that right now. Maybe in a video in the (hopefully near) future!

🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yo , great video ! How many bottles did you use?
I did it on my bus T2b , it is +- 3.5 liters
This was a great tutorial!!! 😃
Thanks Gab!
How's the bus?
Great Video. That sound at the end sounds like oil boiling in the oil pan. I've had that before. Not good. Keep that bus running.
What kind of transmission oil did you use?
/subbed
Great video man!
what grade gear oil did you use?
Great Job
Try lucas gear oil.
Many motors produce this kind of sounds after driving a while while cooling down, i think its kinda normal
+AutumnMusic Yeah it was just water boiling off the tins from when I sprayed it earlier haha
you are collll man
I have 3 VW bugs,1 VW rail buggy,and 1 VW bus
Sounds like you need an oil cooler bad
Why did you take off the ladder? If it's rusty, you should restore it.
+Paola Plata I took it off for when I do bodywork, but the ladder and roof rack are going to be restored :-)
Now do you know what was that noise?
+Andres Human It was water boiling off the tins from when I sprayed it earlier haha
That poor driveway
I,hope that teaches you, a lesson !!!!
Bad smelling oil is a sign it's wasted.
