Rebuilding engines especially Volkswagen engines can be very frustrating.

Building engines from the ground

to the novice will astound

on the crank shaft is a nose bearing

that needs to face the front turned around

and backwards

the engine, it does stop

it also helps when adjusting for flow oil

not to plug the inlet hole

the engine could boil

bench testing is always a good idea

to check and see if the engine will run

starting over is not much fun
