ABOUT:
: How to Rebuild VW Air-Cooled
Engines: 1961-2003 offers beautiful color photos
with insightful step-by-step captions for expertly rebuilding
Volkswagen air-cooled engines and provides in-depth, hands-on
information for disassembly, inspection, machining, parts
selection, preassembly, final assembly, installation, and
tuning.
Not only are the procedures for rebuilding covered in depth
but engine model types, identification codes, specifications,
and details are also covered in a manner that allows the user
to source a good later-model candidate for rebuilding and
helps retrofit the modern engine designs into earlier chassis.
This resource focuses on the VW Type 1, 2, and 3 engines
beginning in the year 1961, when a significant redesign
improved the reliability, durability, and horsepower of the
basic initial design. For more than 70 years, automotive
enthusiasts and the public in general has embraced the VW
air-cooled engine for its simplicity, its capacity to be
modified, and its bulletproof reliability.
One of the most widely used and versatile internal combustion
engines in the world, this engine has powered VW Beetles,
Buses, Porsche 914s, off-road buggies and rails, formula race
cars, and many other machines both on and off-road. From 1938
until 2003, more than 21 million Beetles equipped with an
air-cooled rear-mounted engine were produced.
If you have any interest in reviving your old
VW, or perhaps are researching the purchase of one, this
handy guide will cover all the bases in bringing that old
air-cooled powerplant back to life.
