Ok how do I get this kinda work done for my Lexus

How to adjust valves in 5 steps: 1.- Align crank pulley to TDC mark 2.- Pop distributor cap off and see if rotor points to cyl 1 or 3 3.- Pop both valve covers off 4.- If distributor rotor points to cyl 1, adjust both cyl1 valves, cyl 2 intake and cyl 4 exhaust. If distributor rotor points to cyl 3, adjust both cyl3 valves, cyl 4 intake and cyl 2 exhaust. 5.- Turn crank pulley 1 full turn and adjust remaining valves.

It’s just scrap value, there are millions of old bugs since they’ve build millions. And as long as nobody falls in love with them not minding to put in lots of time to restore and rebuild it all it’s just a rusty paperweight with a cool cult following but not worth much. If you’re are good mechanic and the internal parts aren’t worn or broken out or rusty due to water coming in and you can rebuild the engine just cleaning it and overall putting in new seals etc. then parts wise you could get a good engine for a nice price but if everything is rusted and worn it’s just a old pile of junk unless it’s some rare split window bug model or some safari van shell or something else that’s highly desired by customers willing to dish out lots of money then a rusty restorable one could be a good deal. But otherwise it’s mostly a much better idea to save up a bit more money and spend more time looking for a good deal one that runs already isn’t rusted out and just cost you a bit more but is much easier to fix up technically as well as cosmetically. Here in the Netherlands we would say “buying cheap is expensive”.

Great job on the Bug engine! I did a 1966 Beetle back in 2010, complete pan off restoration. Built a 2110 from scratch, including a new case and every part new, Gene Berg parts where possible. Dual Webers and a ceramic coat exhaust. What a runner that was! Watching you guys do this really brought back those memories.

Are you VW mechanics now? That thing looks like a brand new engine. Watching a lot of VW vids on KZread, I'm taking a liking to those engines. I used to hate bugs. Now I am wanting one.

Currently working on one of these and I've just been reading the factory service manual. Here's some things I learned that can help you out: 1) Replace the rocker arm screws. Its cheap and well worth the money. 2) Put case savers or helicoils into the case where the large studs bolt in. That's a weak spot. 3) Split the case and replace the bearings. Be mindful of measurements especially camshaft endplay when using aftermarket bearings. 4) No need to replace that carburetor. They're fully serviceable. Same goes for the distributor although the vacuum advance probably needed replacing. 5) At the very least, check the oil pump and bypass. You don't everything to be a waste due to the bypass piston/valve sticking and starving the engine of oil. You also don't want it sticking in the closed position and blowing out the oil cooler. And as for the oil pump, they wear out and can get heavily scored. They're not very expensive to replace. 6) Get the factory service manual. Don't use an aftermarket manual. The blue manual is worth every penny. 7) Change the bearings(some need modified to improve oil passage). You need to take off the rod with the messed up piston to at least check if its bent anyway. 8) Test the thermostat and adjust it. Should open around 160F. Make sure you test it while its in its bracket. They tend to fail open and that can damage the engine. 9) Make sure the oil has zinc in it. 10) Clean out the oil cooler and replace its seals. 11) Make sure to clean the oil strainer. Its probably clogged up. You need to remove it every time you do an oil change which means new gaskets and new copper washers. 12) Fix things rather than just replacing stuff unless its a wear item. A properly cleaned and adjusted part is far better than an aftermarket replacement. Anyone can throw new parts at something.

I just watched a video on The Duckman VW Garage were he had a oil leak on a push rod tube and he took out the factory tube what had a pin hole in it and used a telescopic aftermarket tube to replace it . Before he installed it he said folks said that they were known to leak , so the greased the o-rings on the tube then installed it and tightened down tight .

Dang Wyatt. You should've just picked up the car on your shoulders and placed it on the trailer. Pushing it around like it's a shopping cart. Woo Hoo. Love what you fellers do.

THAT was a full rescue... and beautification.

Loved Lance's comment to his Dad about when the radio's were black and white.

Hello there. When you discover the pushrod that was bended, it reminds me that this happens to my first car, a VW 52 model. What happens next was that the pushrod jumped out of the location in the top and then was forced through the top. Then two valves was open at the same time and the piston crash into them. It was too expensive to repair, so I bought a used engine with about 34 hp. The original engine was 25 hp, so I got myself a VW GTi (hehe). Greetings from an old (74yo) fan in Norway.

Well that was a great video tonight. It's really cool to see a parts store that has parts. Lance, Wyatt and Christian thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend 👋

Hey, Lance, you mentioned that the previous owner may have hit something to bend that pushrod? That may explain why you found a new plug in that cylinder. The owner may have thought the plug was bad, instead of a bent pushrod, and put a new plug in it. When that didn’t work, I’ll bet that’s when they parked the car. My thoughts.

The new looking plug was in the cylinder with the broken piston. No compression there. They were driving on 3 cylinders for some time, Ìm sure. They stopped driving the car when the pushrod was bent and the motor stopped running. 2 cyl. is not enough, even for those motors. I hope the guys cleaned the crankcase before reassembly. I think there might be parts from the piston inside, as is was already "see through"...

Many years ago, I bought a 1961 beetle with a blown motor (common in that first year of the 40 horse engine). I wanted more power than stock, so I got a 1965 50 horse bus motor. That 25% increase allowed me to break 80 MPH, but first I had to disconnect the electric speed governor which was put on bus motors to prevent overrevving. The beetle engine was designed to run flat out without overrevving, but the bus has portal gears like the WW II military "kubelwagen." Both vehicles have a higher ground clearance with an axle reduction gear, so they sacrifice top speed for larger load capacity. This means that, unlike a beetle, a bus CAN be overrevved, leading to engine failure. The Restored guys may want to consider a speed governor for this engine.

See y'all in an hour. PS I have and use the Upside App. 😎

Good job on the engine I've seen them much worse. When I was just getting my drivers license for a couple years that's all my Dad allowed us to drive because he always had a couple bugs sitting around. And it got to where I could pull an engine laying under it and sit it on my chest and work your way with still sitting on my chest. We could rebuild it and have it reinstalled in about 5.5 hours and ready to drive. The worse job ever had on a bug was trying to change the clutch cable that was broken. Only major problem when rebuilding an older engine putting larger jugs and pistons on it was Dad wanted to keep the 6 volt system was the starter was never strong enough to start it. Always first thing of the morning to start it was to park on a hill to roll start it.

Working with ur pops making KZread videos must be the best thing ever man.

I put 35,000 miles on it before I wrecked it. Sober now. I really miss it. It made 2 trips to Colorado and never missed a lick. Be sure you put a new thermostat in it. Looks like a round accordian.

Holy crap I can't believe you didn't split the case and get all the crap out of it! It's just like I was telling my buds the other day, "People treat their lawn mowers better than they do a VW."

In my hometown we had an old German guy named Roscoe Brake, he fixed, restored nothing but VW Bugs. The guy could literally take apart the engine, fix whatever and have it ready for you before supper. I had a stuck push rod (common in older Bugs) in my 68 Bug. I took it to him at 10 am he called me at 3pm and told me to pick it up and charged me 20 bucks. He also told me a trick that worked, get some thin sheet metal or aluminum, cut it to cover the engine cover vents from the inside so I did, never had a problem starting it after a rain ever again. He was a gift to Volkswagen Bug owners, rest in peace Mr. Brake.

When you have an engine that hasn’t run in 20 years. The odds on you starting the thing and never having a problem with it is like winning the lottery four times in the same week. It’s always best to pull the engine do a complete tear down clean up and rebuild. It’ll only cost you a couple of gaskets and some time and you may just prevent serious damage by running the engine blind.

The VW bus, Izetta, Bug were all cars we enjoyed before and after our 12 year mission to Indonesia

The story about the VW not running for three days after a rain brought back a memory. My parents had a ‘57 when I was a child. I remember them saying any time you saw rain water flowing down the back window the engine was soon to quit.

Man VWs are amazing. That thing was ready to go. Replacing the necessary parts and its ready to go. Funny thing is that if you keep the original German parts, some of those are worth more than the new parts. They work and fit better, but it does take a lot of elbow grease to get them cleaned up and looking good again. I would save them in case you need to replace any of the aftermarket parts. Make sure you get all the cooling tin on there so she stays around for quite a long time. Man watching this was so cool. I love vdubs and always learn from watching others. I hope to get some more videos out soon, I just went to my first vw show in my bus after two years of just sitting in my yard. Got her running again.
