1. Hey man! Don't you need a liquid sealant in between your
   carter halfs? Great video's btw. Got a 72' beetle with a
   AB1300 that won't start. I was gonna take it to school and
   work on it there , but I tkink I'm gonna tackle it myself
   now. Greetings from Belgium!
2. Fix your Web site It keeps freezing up my browser every time
   I tried to go on it. the trouble is not on my end.
3. no gaskets ,permatex
4. The only reason I use them is they come in the kit. I use
   Permatex Non Harding sealer under the washers and never have
   a leak. If you put the red side down you don't get a true
   torque on the nuts and over time the torque will change, it
   will loosen and you don't want that.
5. why did you use case sealing nuts and install them upside
   down? the red part of the nut goes down to seal out oil
   leaks..
6. do you use permatex #2 as the case sealer? Thanks for a
   great vid
7. Jack, Please ignore all the stupid comments posted in your
   videos. You have done a HUGE service to all of us VW fans
   and we are in debt to you. Keep up the great work and always
   remember that if nothing else you have a HUGE fanbase in
   Pakistan now. (On behalf of the VW Club Of Pakistan)
8. I didn't, its part of the block.
9. when did you install the oil pickup tube?
10. I use Permatex Non Harding sealer and just a thin coat on
    both halves of the case. Jack
11. Hello, Didn´t you use any type of seal (like a loctite or
    other typer) in a junction of the two parts of the
    Block? By the way you are doing a very good joob Best
    regards
12. The cam opens and closes the valves via the push
    rods. Don't sell it the engine wont run.(-;
13. You have to have the cap on or the blow-by from the engine
    will push oil out the oil fill.
14. What's the cam shaft for? It looks pointless, I'll just sell
    mine. No really what does it do?
15. Hello Sir! Congrats about the job u done. I was eager to see
    u assembling the alternator/oil tower to see the right
    position of that grill that goes between the tower itself
    and the case. but I did not see it. I`m having this ~oil
    spill~ thru the oil tower when without the cap Can u help
    me? thanks in advance!
16. Your so right about the nuts!
17. koolbossjock, Your so right about the nuts..
18. I had sent several comments that never showed up for some
    reason.I hear ya on those teflon nuts,i have seen people
    including myself that has used them in the past with the
    teflon right side up with permatex and washers and torque to
    26 i believe.If you use them against the case only torque to
    18.I am leary about using them face down w/o washers,like
    you said my concern was the torque setting changing over
    time.That red part is NOT a seal but more of a self locking
    nut.
19. Test, can you read me now? (-: whats all the testing for?
20. Yes I would beleave that. The only reason I use the self
    sealing nuts is they come in the kit and I put them on
    backwards. I found you can't alway get the right torque with
    them and the torque setting on the tefflon seal will change
    as the case contracts and expands. I never use the O Rings
    because I had a problum many years ago with one O ring not
    seating right and never used them again and never had a
    problum, the oil will not travle past the permatex and
    washer. Do what you think is best.
21. Test
22. Test
23. Test
24. Would you believe i was reading a book that said put the 6
    self sealing nut for the crank that torque the case with no
    washer and the red towards the case.Oh by the way I did not
    see you put the o rings on the studs in the case b4
    clossing.lol
25. Love the videos, and love the music in all of them just as
    much, just had to comment on this one though, Maggie
