Two is best but you can get away with one if the drive gear engages the Dist. It was running that way before so it should be good.

Hi,

At 2:23, when you inserted the shaft in, you say to make it face the fuel pump stud...was the engine at TDC when this was done??

Awesome series. So much to learn and is such a help when overhaulin'. lol. I was just wondering if you could sometime create a video that comes after build 14? cause i would like figure out how to install the heater boxes and all of the engine tin for the 1600.

I've been building engines for about 25 years now and I still love the way you give the instructions. It reminds me of a guy I worked for at VW of Los Angeles. His name was Hans... If you had the German accent, I would be having a flashback right now. Old school all the way . VERY NICE VIDEOS....

@Indy452 Could be someone lost it before you.

When I tore my 1600 down the distributor gear fell out and all I could find was one washer....is this normal to only have one or is two absolutely standard? BTW, I searched the case high and low, inside and out for another but no luck....

Please, sir, I hope you can upload the video where you do all those things you said, I'd wish you caoud do that to see this engine fire up...

@vwMauri69 Here's what my fellow Mexican said on his post: My name's Mauri and I'm a VW Bug fan. I've seen your whole 14-video series and I've been greatly astonished with your abilities and deep knowledge. The videos are really explicit, I wish I had seen them before, so they would've saved me a couple of headaches during my learning. Now that I have your videos I use them as didactic material in my VW club in Mexico, in the Zacatecas state. Thanks for your effort, I really appreciate it.

You are one cool and funny dude! Thanks for all of the excellent help.

Hola Sr. Jack, soy Mauri y soy fanático del vw escarabajo. He visto toda la serie de videos (1-14) y he quedado gratamente impresionado con su habildad y profundo conocimiento. En verdad son muy explícitos, ojalá los hubiera visto antes, me hubiera ahorrado algunos dolores de cabeza durante mi aprendizaje. Ahora que los tengo los empleo como material didáctico en mi club vw en México, en la provincia de Zacatecas. Son de invaluable ayuda. Gracias por su esfuezo, yo lo aprecio enormemente.
