Great videos. would like to know about your starter adapter. Did you make it, or can I buy one somewhere ?
Hey man this video was awesome. I have a question. The full pump rod sleeve on my 1600 broke. Because I triex to take it out wrong didnt realise it was sorta wedged under the distributor. Dumb move. It broke of inside the block. I tried to take it out and it desinigrated and fell inside. Is there anyway to get it out without separating the block. Any suggestion would be extremely appreciated. Signed vw dumby needs help bad.

Best 40hp build video on RUclips
When I was a kid growing up my father had two VW's. One was a 1500 air cooled engine, and the other was a 1600 dual port air cooled engine. The 1500 was the most reliable of the two, and it would go 140,000 miles before any engine work would be needed. The 1600 dual port was a lemon, and had to have a valve job every 30,000 miles. The 1600 dual port would also suck valves, and throw them through the pistons. We still had the VW with the 1500 engine long after the 1600 dual port was sold. As for the 1500 we had, I still see it running today. Our 1600 is long gone. I remember a friend of ours who was a VW mechanic come over to our house, and work on the 1600 engine. This video brings back memories.
You got to be proud of yourself, I am i Hamburg in Germany, please accept my respect to you and your hard work.
Man that thing sure did sound smooth once Darrin was finished with all the tuning. Anyone who hasn’t ever worked with an old Aircooled engine has no idea how much fine tuning it takes. Darrins skills shine through in all the problem solving. Great job guys!
She's purring like a kitten. I let out an audible "Yay!" when she started up. Excellent job, both of you!
Hey Dave! It sounds amazing! Thank you so much! Thats awesome! I glad you enjoyed it my friend! Stay tuned for more! =)
Well it was touch and go for a while…you touched and it went.. Good on ya! I enjoyed watching you guys building this classic…
I am mot a car guy ,but i really enjoyed watching your rebuild ... Thanks
Wow! Thanks Dave!
I have several VWs that need that engine. Nice job guys!!!
Darrin is looking really good he is not pale and moving around okay like his back is not Killing him, impressive man glad to see it man.
Yes, he really is doing great. Stay tuned for the next one. Thank you!
What a morning!! Darrin and CT... even have Darrin singing to us a little. Love it guys!! So cool with all the awesome camera angles, sweet!
I really love a VW engine!!! Such a beautiful thing!
Thanks brother! Yes, he was loving it. Singing and everything! I really appreciate that man. I really enjoy the filming process.
some serious skills rebuilding this engine thanks for sharing
Thank you for your vlog. Both of you have good jobs on bug car’s engine and body repair. I enjoyed watching on your vlog.
Congratulations CT! Glad the engine finally works. but the honor now goes the most to your mechanic.
Hello Ronald! Yes, Darrin is an amazing mechanic and really smart! I couldn't a have done it without him. Thank you! Stay tuned for more! =)
He also sounds a little bit like an ass, seems like he liked to talk down to you.
I love my1971 VW campmobile all original and I tow it behind my RV.i put a sign on the back window of VW that says " Quite Honking I'M pushing as hard as I can". Be safe fellas.
Great Job done guys. Sounds wonderful. Darrin knows his stuff. Hurry up CT , Rusty is waiting for his well running engine.
Hey Michael! Thank you! He really does! Yes, Rusty is super excited! =) Thanks my friend!
The mechanic's attention to detail is excellent (100%)
what a great trip through the rebuild, never knew that the valves should be adjusted every oil change or 3000 miles. Real pleasure watching a true craftsman show a novice how to do it right and also some tricks. Thanks for the trip
Hey Brian! I didn't know that either. it was a fun time working with Darrin. I think he might be coming over to my garage next. Stay tuned!
@@CTmoog Ich hatte ein Karmann Ghia Cabriole....Ventile einstellen? Hatte niemand daran gedacht, auch zu teuer in der Wartung! Das Auto lief
dennoch immer....😁
I can still hear Heinz my VW mechanic telling me to keep those valves adjusted when I was 16...50 years ago! That old ‘58 was turned into a dune buggy. Great video!
WOW! That is a great memory! So cool! Thank you! Stay tuned for more! =)
After my 62 ragtop was totalled three times, bought back for 50$ each time from insurance company, it became a cut down Baja. That was in '71. Miss that tough old bird.
Thanks guys for using Zalex's engine test starting tools! Your engine sounds great and I'm so happy for you and Rusty! Troubleshooting that oil leak is exactly why we made this product because the same thing happened to me before. Swapping out parts and getting it to run right is so much more enjoyable out there in the open.
Thank you for making this amazing tool! It was easy to connect and really fun to use. I couldn't wait to flick the switch and push the start button. It was awesome! That is one tool everyone should have if they are working on engines.
a proper engine rebuild and the accompanying difficulties in getting it properly sorted.
loved every minute, old school stuff at its best.
I could sit and watch that 40 horser' idle all day , even in chilly Florida 😁.
Thanks brother! It was a great time working with Darrin! Can't wait to hang with him again. That 40HP is sweet! =) Do you have an old dirt bike I can have? =)
That's weird= Florida and chilly in the same sentence !! How cold is it down there ?
It was actually cold that day and even colder that night. We worked late into the night and I think it was around 34 degrees Fahrenheit.
We need to buy him some screw drivers this man is someone that brings back history to us older people we all need to support his channel and help him with tools. To keep this history up.an expert at what he does
Shouts to darrin ❤😂hes a machine great content boyz much love from England 🏴
Glad to see Darrin in full power.
Excellent video, nothing to add, nothing to substract.
My had goes off to this man. The engine through everything at him and to his great credit he kept working despite the extra pressure of being filmed and tamed the beast well done sir
This reconnects me to the time when I was at the age of 15-16 and I rebuilt my first 50 HP VW Bus (1973) engine. Long ago. And so present in the same moment. Thank you!
Thank you for watching! I'm glad it brought back some good times! =) Thank you! Stay tuned! =)
@@CTmoog nice job
I overhauled my 61 bug engine in high school, 1969.
Ordered big jug kit (1700?) from J.C.Whitney, and manifolds/linkage to add dual carbs. Of course headers with glass pack muffler. Made a world of difference.
When I was 16 my father and I rebuilt a 1969. He was not a patient person so mostly I had to just stay out of the way. I really appreciated your patience in these 3 videos. I’m 63 years old now and have thought about getting another VW engine just so I could try again..
All three videos were awesome. The challenges of that motor starting is real world, I can relate to that! Thanks for letting us hang out with guys!
I know how happy u were when the engine got started after many efforts and even i got a smile on my face. Great work!!!
Thanks Roda!
Very amazingly good job!!
There's always a snag. That what make the video a good one.
Sweet job brother. That's a big milestone to hit. You and Darrin brought her back to life.
Thanks Ron! Yes, it really is. Darrin is a life saver!
She's a Runner!!! Nice job CT, thanks DARRIN! ...Newk from Kentucky
Thank you for sharing years of your knowledge. Really enjoyed these videos 🤘🏻
Thanks guys! Brought back memories of working on my 63' bug, my 74' kombi as well as my 1959 356A 1600 Super. Those were the days!
Your vids have made me start looking for my own VW to restore. Keep 'em coming man!
Hey Frank, that’s awesome man! They are out there. Good luck and Keene updated on what you find. Stay tuned! 👍😎👍
CT, great job by you and Darrin. That engine runs beautiful. Really great work..!!!
Thank John! I was a ton of fun working with Darrin on this build! Can't wait for the next adventure with him! Thank you! Stay tuned for more! =)
Beautiful Job Darrin,you’ve built a smooth one there !
Hey Russel! Darrin was amazing to watch and learn from! It is pretty smooth! =)
Sounds freaking SWEET!!! Thanks for bringing us a long. I really miss getting to watch Darrin's engine building.
Hey Greg! Thanks man! Yes, he has so much to teach! I can't wait to hang out with him again! =)
darren did a great job on your engine
he sure knows vw engiines
Yes, he really did an awesome job on Rusty's engine! I can't wait to hang out with him again! Thank you! Stay tuned for more! =)
Thanks to Darrin for sharing his knowledge and letting CT film it. Great job guys!
Hey Michael, Darrin is awesome and it was fun working with him! Thank you so much for supporting us! 👍😎👍
I am so glad you got someone that knew that engine to build it. It looks amazing. I am not a mechanic but I am an engineer. i would not have tried that :-)
Yes, me too. Darrin did an amazing job! =) Thank you!
Engineers also play a part in restoring the engine parts back to its former glory but the fun goes to the mechanic when he builds the motor and gets it to fire it up! The Sweet sound of VW Beetle engine running smoothly like new
The Heart of Rusty, ready to run! i see 3 of 3 im from south america i try to understood but i can see all proces, very nice job!!!
Practically a modern BugMe video. Very informative. 👍
WOW! Thanks Brian! I appreciate that! I love those guys! Thank you! Stay tuned for more! =)
Great! The 40 is a great motor. It's great that you used original dizzy, carb and fuel pump. That's how they were designed. Good to run an oil bath air cleaner and a heat riser. Also good to use thermostat sys. I would loose the fuel filter due to the fact that the stock pump has one built in. Cleaning the fuel screen is done at oil changes. Flush the gas tank and clean the screen in the tank too. You will never regret doing that. Cheers and enjoy!
Thanks Brian! I appreciate the support! That is some great advice my friend! Thank you! Stay tuned for more! =)
@@CTmoog Thanks! A '64 bug was my 1st car in 1975. All these years later, i have a '64 sunroof deluxe. All stock and original. Just a driver. Has the same smell and sounds of my youth! Lol
For gosh sakes...this guy is a freakin’ VW master...would somebody get the man a good engine stand!?!? 😬 Another really great video!
HAHA! That's is a great idea! I might have to do that! Thank you!
Great to see you got vw Darrin back in the shop love watching both of your channels
Hey Frank! Thank you so much man! We appreciate that a bunch! Stay tuned for more! =)
Yes this is an awesome thing, missed seeing Darrin getting after it!! Good stuff!!
@@JWClassicVW Yes, I'm really excited to see him in action! More to come brother!
I like you're restoration job of the VW ENGINE because you are doing the job up to the Standard. Not only that I also already followed entire series of causes in Motor Engineering ( PETROL AND DIESEL ) in around 1989 - 1991 at " CEYLON GERMAN TECHNICAL TRAINING INSTITUTE. " KATUBAYDDA. , MORATUWA. , SRI LANKA. So before I joined the Institute l had help a Technician who was Overhauling a VW ENGINE. Finally when I see this job I got that sweet memory in to my Mind. He is Mr. RANDOLF L. GOMAS ( FORMER FOREMAN AT MOTOR GARAGE " SRI LANKA BROADCASTING CORPORATION " ) But at the moment I am sadly remembering him because now he is with our Loving God. Any way I used to call him Uncle Bage.
Sounds sweet
Must be so tough when the engine is in the vehicle
Firing order was wrong the first time on the big cap distributor, 2 and 4 looked to be flipped on the distributor cap. Very clean build! Can’t wait to see it in the car
Yes, you might be right. I think we got that figured out later in the build. I was distracting him with the filing. Thanks for watching! =) Stay tuned form more!
I spent last night and most of the day today watching yall work on the Vdub motor. Loved every min of it.
Thanks Dan!
Well CT Nice to hear the engine is running, The next project must bring it back again in Rusty the Bus. after the rebuilding of the bodywork Congratulations on your choice from the mechanic. Greetings from HCS.
HGello HCS! Good to hear from you my friend! THANK YOU!!! Rusty's metal work coming soon!
@@CTmoog Il be there to watch .Greetings HCS
Great to see a highly knowledgeable man at work . Would like to know more on the crank, a connecting rod polish also the pin fitting .
Hello! Yes, it was a great time learning from Darrin! Maybe Darrin and I can do a follow up video going over some of the build details. Stay tuned for that.
@@CTmoog Yes And I hope you cleaned his nice garage space after you finished, you are lucky to have such up close and personal tuition. Good luck with your projects.
Acomo lo he visto este maestro es limpio y paciente ysolo asi es como un maestro es lo maximo en su trabajo mi respeto maestro
Good video. Hello from belgium.volswagen is the best car
Nice to watch someone work who knows what the hell he is doing.
Big accomplishment man, congrats and thanks to Darren for the save!
Thanks brother! It is a major milestone in Rusty's build! I feel like the engine is the heart. Once the heart is beating the rest will follow! =) Darrin is a life saver!
I believe they made 15,000,000 of them? So, another 14,999,999 to go.
Dang... that first sound of a V-dub firing up is like an imprint of ancestral memory...
Hey Chez! I agree! It’s awesome! 👍😎👍
Man, that's so cool!!! I get so excited for everyone who's doing this - including myself. I can't wait to see Rusty on the road!
Hey Jamie! Thank you! It gets me pump up even more when I read comments like this. I can't wait to get back out win the garage on work on Rusty! Stay tuned for more!
@@CTmoog Great!!! It gets me pumped to see your videos! That's what I love about the VW community - For the most part, everyone helps others & encourages others! Have a great day!
Great job guys nice little 40 horse.
Thanks Gary!
Well, another good stride towards getting ol Rusty on the road. The engine sounds awesome! It was kind of a booger though, but what can you say? Rusty strikes again ! Maybe he'll lighten up one of these days lol. Great job guys!
Hey Mike! Yes, it's a great motivator having the engine done. Yes, Rusty doesn't always play nice. Thank you! Stay tuned for more! =)
Very Nice...Learned a lot...Thanks for this video..
Great job guys weldone, loved the video and Darrin knows his stuff that's for sure, thanks for sharing 👍
Hello Warren! THANK YOU! =) Stay tuned for more!
Very good experience
I love the sound of a VW engine.
Genial vídeo bro 👌 y muy buena máquina
Yes me ,to👍 the exhaust sounds crispy
Thanks to both of you,appreciated.
Very Awesome JOB Darren for the nice work!!
very nice sound of the engine
Great and clean job dude. Thanks.
Respect to the old man, I've never seen a better mechanic that re-store a VW motor than him! I loved it it was challenging but the man never gave up! He's a genuius!
Perfect Engine tuner! First timer love the engine sweet motor 😘🙌
Thanks for another great video, love to see it go into the bus and road test ,etc. Darin, you are the man!
Great job I work on vw back in the 80s first job in grenada nice brother.
Very cool! Thanks man!
'Christine' sounds quite good. A few hundred miles or so should help smooth her out a bit as well. Darrin does exemplary work!
Hey Wes! It sure does! I can't wait to put a few miles on it. Darrin is the man! Thanks man! Stay tuned for more! =)
I appreciate that you didnt edit out the challenges to get it to fire up consistently. Thats real life. You need to have a certain amount of patience in the tank after you put it all together to be able to do the troubleshooting.
Congratulations CT. I´m happy to see this engine running again.
Thanks my friend! =)
Great job guys sometimes rebuilding old Parts take some time to get them working correctly it gets frustrating at times when you just want the engine to start right up but first time, with everything sorted it sounds great
Hello David! Yes, it challenged us a few times along the way. Darrin took it like a champ and didn't give up. He has a few tricks up he sleeve and 40 years of experience! =)
Nice i have a vw bug 1974 im from Mexico
14:32 when I adjust valves, I put the pulley on the TDC mark and pop off the 2 valve covers. On one side (like the one they first adjusted) there will be 3 closed valves (in this example, both for cyl #1 + the intake on cyl #2), so I adjust those. On the other side of the engine, 1 valve will be closed (again, in this example, the exhaust valve for cyl #4 will be closed) so I adjust that as well.
I turn the pulley 1 full rotation and adjust the remaining valves. Easy peasy.
Excelente demostración de armado del motor air cooler vw. Saludos desde Perú!
It's a miracle that your engine is started.Take more care of it in the future.
nice restore all.new good to go godbless
Thanks 👍
Ok! That´s a good sound!!! Rusty sing a great song!!!
=) Music to our ears!
Sounds great! Rusty is going to be pretty happy with that level of tuning!
Thanks Thomas! Yes, he is going to be super happy and me too! =)
Great video! You’re lucky to be watching and learning from wvdarrin.
Nice job from you and Darrin! Now I would love to see more work on Rusty's body
Thank you! Your wish has been granted! Rusty's body work going soon! Stay tuned!
@@CTmoog Oh yes, I can't wait to see that!
loved the show and not to criticize. the First Basic mistake before changing the dizy, was the firing order was in revers. a 2ND fault , was the no1-2 rocker shaft was previously wrongly assembled. Aside for that nice job
Nice job Darrin and CT
Thanks brother!
Rusty's gonna leap for joy with that engine in him! 😁
Hey Andy! Yes he is! I know I am! =) Thanks man! Stay tuned my friend!
IT'S ALIVE ALIVE!!! Rusty's gonna make it!!!!!!!
