Classic VW Beetle BuGs How to Adjust your Valves PT2 Resto Tip

[Sheldogg23]

Great stuff! I'm a newbie to the bug, just bought a 65 baja so I could learn about them. I think a 1600 has been put into mine...but...I don't have a clue how to tell the difference between the 1600 and the 1200, which I believe '65 was the last year for...I'm a sponge for knowledge...any advice is always appreciated from anyone.

I really like that the valves are adjusted while cold. Trying to adjust valves while hot means you have a time limit. If you bust your time (acceptable temperature range) then you have to run up the engine again. Plus, not getting burned is always a plus.

we took the engine our out, for painting.

maybe good time to check the valves, and clutch, clean dirt between cilinders and such
