Thank you so very much that was very nice of you.

I paused the video at like 2 minutes in…and ordered the puller tool and four of them special sealed nuts. I do actually learn things from these videos…

@HeathersHaven Год назад

I should have the newest stickers and gear done this weekend!

@eduardorodriguez3262 Год назад

I vote for the specialty tools video.they are not only to learn but to refresh . I replaced my alternator just recently with a video along with the manual👍🇩🇪

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

Sounds great, I will go ahead and do that video within the next few weeks.

@douglasbarnhart3324 Год назад

Thanks for the video Slade!! See ya on the next one.

Thank you my friend, and thanks for always watching the videos every week.

Thank You for the Oil Pump video --- AND --- for doing a Playlist of your video's --- I would think most people are at different points in doing repairs and what not to their cars --- today may not be -- Do an Oil Pump day --- With your Playlist it will be easier to find that video on what we are doing when we need it -- instead of the Search All method --- VERY GOOD! ---- I see you knew right where to get that paint brush -- her Private little stash -- you keep it clean and it will always be there. --- Tell Heather -- her new Sticker design looks really nice --- you two should sell quite a few of them and if the same design is on the T-Shirts ---- you will sell a lot of them also. As for the Specialty Tools it would be good to see --- especially if it makes working on the engine easier ---- Rodney

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

Thank you so much Rodney! I hope that you’re doing well my friend. I think a playlist would help a lot of people that’s why I did it. Hopefully when they need something it’s like opening up a book and going through the index. I definitely am going to do that specialty tool video just in case people are new to the game and dont realize that they are available.

@ricklarner9263 Год назад

thnks, just ready to do that, and add the plate with the oil filter .

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

That’s awesome Rick, thank you so much for being here.

@MikeMoose67 Год назад

Man that was another fantastic video. I would look forward to some videos on VW Specialty tools. I’m going to go ahead and get myself a T-shirt and some stickers beings that I ordered my wife Duran Duran tickets yesterday I think that’s only fair 😳LOL

Oh wow that would be a great concert! Thanks so much for being here I truly appreciate it.

@johncollins5552 9 месяцев назад

Well worth doing, after replacing my 72 1200 og pump that had 100,000 miles up, I noticed about a 10 per cent gas saving! Stock pump not aftermarket gimmick pump.😅Manufacturers claim all sorts to sell more crapola for more dollars.

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

I actually used some simple green and very fine “000” steel wool. Thank you!

@VWBEETLEOVAL1955 Год назад

great video my friend, to bad you couldn't do it your way with new nuts and the right sealant on it. but it came out very good. I hope that motor will build up a good oil pressure, a little bit warned out. good work and up to the next video.

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

He did order the right nuts for it, so now I’m gonna have to take it back apart again. It’s not easy doing work for others lol he said the motor has 40,000 miles and appears to have more to me

@briansmythe3000 Год назад

I'm gonna buy a Sticker forshore too go on Bess Thanks Bro for all the Info Oh I might get a tee shirt too if it helps you Guys out I'm getting one of them CB pumps with the filter , I've currently got the motor out of Bess New barrel's pistons top end freshen up Plus general clean up ,So this is good Rego soon, Cheer Thanks

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

Thank you for the support Brian! The new stickers will be in, in a few weeks. So I will have to change things around so I know which ones people are trying to order. I hope this video has helped out.

@dr.a7670 Месяц назад

Hello Slade. I am really enjoying these videos I am in the process of tearing down my engine. Is there a part 5, 6.... ? I am following this to do mine Any follow up videos from here or another series ? Thank you :)

@GT.Bugger Год назад

Another useful video. Pretty straight forward but a job I've not yet done..and there's not many of them at this point. Seemed a shame after all the sealant to try and prevent leaks that you didn't have the correct nuts to hold the cover in place.

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

He actually just ordered them a week ago. So I’m going to have to take it apart again, and reseal it and put the new nuts on.

@Mikefngarage 5 месяцев назад

I just put 1 drop of oil on each gear. It is enough to get the vacuum started. that is really all you need. I am always afraid of putting anything else because the engineers have a tolerance between the bearing and the crankshaft for oil. The thickness of the vasoline might be more than oil so it might not properly lubricate the bearing. many people do this though and it seems to work for them. This is just the way we do it. Yes put something on those gears. so they work. On a V8 I drip some oil down the inlet and turn the pump over till the gears are coated. Then install it Done!....something on those gears. I have heard of people putting them together dry and not getting it to prime.

@rongibbs1778 Год назад

Yes I would like to see a specialty tool show and where to get them, can you sit up a link through your channel so we can buy the tools and you can get a percentage in return

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

I can definitely put links up to the tools. I don’t get a percentage on that stuff but I do appreciate your asking. I’ll do that when I do the video.

@4wdiesels 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the detailed video. Is this procedure similar on a 36hp?

@josephheston9238 Год назад

Specialty VW tools? If possible, I would like to see the AutoStick drive plate hold down tool because of the impossiblility of tightening or looosening of the gland nut without it.

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

I will gather all the information that I can. I do have some of the tools on hand and the ones that I don’t I will show, and discuss them.

@vintage76vipergreenBeetle Год назад

I would have resurfaced the oil pump cover. Looked like it needed a little cleaning up. I use a spare vw door glass with some fine emery cloth sandpaper with WD-40.

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

I have to remove the cover since he finally ordered the nuts. So I’m definitely going to try that sounds like an excellent idea my friend.

@vintage76vipergreenBeetle Год назад

@Slades VW Beetle The special sealing nuts for the oil pump cover, have gone up in price in the past few years. They can only be used once. They only should go on the cover, when you know the engine is ready to run.

@marcomaglines 8 месяцев назад

Guys, remember to not block the holes. You might forget haha

@dailydouble1966 Год назад

I love these tutorials. The tips for those of us doing stuff for the first time are invaluable. What might seem obvious to you often isn't to me because I've never done this before. What were the other gaskets for? Different year engine? That might be helpful to state - I'm working on a 1966 beetle with a 1300 engine, alot the same but I'm sure there are differences. Thanks so much for giving me the confidence to try stuff like this! Blessings

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

Thank you, and thank you so much for being here. The other gaskets are for different size engines. When you buy a master kit it comes with gaskets for smaller and larger engines. A large assortment

Please do the VW tool video.

@prkid424 5 месяцев назад

This was a great video. Question: Installing a full flow oil pump and cover. Oil pump does NOT have an outlet port And the pump cover I have is a full flow cover. Is it necessary to tap and plug the block oil pump outlet? I ask because case halves are already bolted together, flywheel bolted up and end play set. and in my mind since the pump has no outlet and oil will be forced to come out through the pump cover there is no need to plug the block galley. Thoughts?

@dalemolnar2359 Год назад

how did you clean that oil pump? Looks clean.

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

I actually used simple green and”000” steel wool.

@cjjones1556 Год назад

Hi Tony. Thanks for another great video. Curious question for you. Do you think it would make more sense to torque the case before the pump cover. It seems like if you do the cover first it could keep the case from fully sealing. I am not judging or critiquing, just the way my VW rattled brain works.✌️

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

Thanks for chiming in CJ, I have actually done it both ways. Probably doing it the way you named would probably be the better one, but I’ve never run into a problem. But I thank you for bringing that up it makes sense!!

@mikezsak6577 Год назад

When you show the picture of the oil pump housing after pulling it off the 4 holes in the grove are clearly evident (time stamp 12:24). When you show the housing after cleaning it the 4 holes do not appear to be there (time stamp 13:05). What am I missing? Is the cleaned housing a different housing from what was pulled off originally? Also I vote “YES” for a video on specialty tooling.

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

Hi Mike, I know what you’ve seen, you were seeing the old gasket that has the holes in it. Once you remove the gasket the holes are gone. And then you just see the groove until the new gasket is put on with the holes in it. I hope that made sense.

@mikezsak6577 Год назад

@benkanobe7500 9 месяцев назад

Is it common practice and/or is it advisable to replace the oil pump cover?

@SladesVWBeetle 9 месяцев назад

The only time you would replace the oil pump cover, is, if there is an issue with it. If you do notice some scratch marks in it from the gears, you could make a little stationary place to sand. It smooth. Probably setting a piece of sandpaper on glass, and rubbing it “the cover”back-and-forth on it to smooth it out. Nothing too aggressive.

@johncollins5552 Год назад

I have a couple.of different VW manuals and one of them gives a spec. for the thickness of feeler gauge that I think you can be ok to reuse the pump if it's in spec. between the gear and the body of the pump. When I rebuilt my engine 2 years ago I bought a replacement for the og 50 year old pump but couldn't find it when I came to reassembly time, so the original pump went back in and I never did find the new one so recently I got a second new one 😆 Do you think I could replace it without taking the stock exhaust off or the engine out? It's a hassle as my Bug doesn't have a garage to work in.

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

Honestly John I have never tried to do it that way. That’s why I’m considering designing a removable apron, probably an upcoming video soon. It would seem very difficult to do that with the engine inside. Although it can be done. Just a little more intense of work.

@johncollins5552 Год назад

@@SladesVWBeetle I was thinking the same, easily removed rear apron would save me some skinned knuckles for sure at the very least even on a pretty stock bug like mine, big hands are a curse 🖐️

@johncollins5552 Год назад

Plus my rear 50 year old rear apron has seen better days and is due replacement anyways!

@superbear617 Год назад

Nice video! Love the "tips and tricks". But, I may have missed something. What was the purpose of removing the oil pump? I did not see you sing any new parts. You did clean things up, though, so was that the reason? Thanks! And yes, I think a "special tools " video would be interesting.

@SladesVWBeetle Год назад

Thanks I appreciate that! He had removed the plate, to paint it. Which broke the gaskets loose. So I had to put new gaskets on and cleaned it up while I was in there

What size studs are those? I see hevy duty VW pumps that say 8mm studs and 30 mm thick. Do those bolt on and are they needed?

@johncollins5552 9 месяцев назад

You don't need a heavy duty pump unless putting out over twice the stock horsepower. Good quality stock pump is fine for most, often better than aftermarket.

@benkanobe7500 9 месяцев назад

@@johncollins5552 Thanks. My engine is/will be stock with just a slight compression boost due to head surfacing. Is there a preferred Quality Stock pump and where should I go to purchase it? Thanks!
