Hi All Slowly but surely, I am collecting items to use for later. Last week I bought headlight rings since mine are pitted. In reality, I won't use them for quite a while. The ones I bought were described as being for a "1969 VW Bus or Bug Eyelids, Original , chrome finished , excellent...

Hi, Another Brosol 30/31 question! I didn't get any literature with my carb and I was wondering which jet is the idle jet - is it the one nearest to the bowl? TIA, --Steve

Does anyone have a diagram or a picture showing an assembled Z bar on a 67 or 68 beetle? I have a bag of new rubber and slides on the floor and two naked rods on the car. Any help appreciated. Scott

HI, I'm in the process of putting new cylinders and heads on my engine. I've read the articles NOT to put the paper gasket from cylinder to block - so I won't. I've read to use a sealent, choices varied, Jan mentioned a thin gasket sealant ( not sure what) as there were thoughts a "thick" sealant...

just reading a popular hotrodding mag article that shows them using a newer thermal coating inside the combustion chamber, on the valves, and i think on the top of the piston. the whole idea is to reduce the heat transfer from the combustion chamber into the heads, valves, etc., and thus gain a...

I want to make my fenders wider by at least and inch or inch and a half. I would like to do this by cutting and welding my metal fenders, using another set of fenders to do it or just cutting and adding some sheet metal. How is this best accomplished? -- Terry B AKA VDUBBS Buggin in...

I am new to the VW lifestyle. I have done a good share of researching but I can not find a question to my dilemma. I recently inherited a 1970 Beetle; I am working with the former owner to get it running. This past weekend we switched out the spark plug wires and adjusted the timing by ear and...

Hi, Working on that `71 Ghia, I have the engine torn down, but pistons 1 and 3 are rusted/frozen to their respective cylinders. Any reccommended methods for working them loose? I tried the rubber mallet on the fins but it didn't make them budge. Thanks. -Alex

Hi, My great 67 Bug is sold, BUT my web site is paid up for a year, why not use it? View a plethora of vintage bug ad art PLUS 1000's of vintage bug air-cooled links around the world! Have fun - have LOTS of fun.

I am hooking up an internally regulated alternator in place of generator as per Speedy Jim's website ( http://www.nls.net/mp/volks/schem/gen_alt.htm ). I spliced the wires ( 2 B+ & 1 D+ ) from the regulator, now the DF wire is all that is left on the regulator and it used to go to the generator. I...

Hello gents... let me first start off by saying I am new to the vw aircooled world, but no stranger to automotive performance in the least. I've recently come across a 72 superbeetle, and am interested in getting a decent amount of power out of it. My question is this... whats the biggest...
