I have little question i couldn't find any video of it on you tube
My super beetles (1973) ignition coils are all burnt it touched each other and i don't know what goes where now that i removed them to change them.
any help would be great
thanks

Really clear video, Neil. Thanks! I'm hoping to apply the same principles to a 1968 Wolseley Hornet. Just need to get me a test light now ;)
-
Top video, you may have just saved my remaining shred of sanity.
will be in the garage at weekend trying this to sort out the timing on my trike

Your the Man!!! We just made a motor out of one half of two ceased engines and an old scrapped but good case. Couldn't get her to fire up, just burping flames last night. Now...... Thumbs Up!!! High Five my friend!

Hi Neil
Here is my problem Rebuild Engine & carbureator starts but it turns off when it gets hot. Where du I start.
-
This is pretty useless. Way too vague, basically an over-view for people who don't know anything about VWs. Why don't you post some more informative, in-depth information?
-
Interesting, but when I tried it (on a 76 converted from FI to carb) my test tight is always on. I'd tried it on both the positive & negative terminal and various ground points on the engine. What am I doing wrong?
-
@JeffDeWitt I actually find the words 'Earth Point' amusing, considering that the car is sitting on 4 rubber tyres that insulate from 'Earth' (ground)

Neil, good video. Im timing my 68 ghia 1.5 engine with just a test light. The U.S bentley says that post 67 vw's in the u.s. have exhaust emission control carbs and time at 0 degrees TDC instead of 7.5, but i dont hear much about it. Maybe im misreading it- seems like an awful lot of cars. Have you heard this? Thx, make more vids
-
Nice video but will this also work on a 1985 GTI? I have been having problems with the timing and now the car doesnt even wants to turn on.
