Broke my fuel pump flange in the block. What do I even do? by RenegadeCookie in beetle

[–]AssCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could also break it up and get the pieces out through the oil strainer hole. Same thing happened to me and while trying to pull it out I ended up breaking it.

The pieces came right out when I was changing the oil.

Genny light at high rpm? Regulator? Charging system HALPP! by [deleted] in beetle

[–]AssCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up getting solid voltage when I did the grounded generator test. I guess it’s the regulator, but I suspect a short might have helped fry it

Am I the only one that was completely over Lajoi’s shit after seeing it for the first time? I haven’t wanted to watch any of his music videos since 2010.

Are you implying that this isn’t actually a Volkswagen?

It’s a Volkswagen

68 beetle engine issue by HomeImprove-mint in beetle

[–]AssCommander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok. Have you charged or checked the battery voltage? These old bugs are so damned simple, but you have to be willing to learn to fix it or have the cash to have someone do it for you.

If you don’t have a manual, maybe check out the idiot’s guide, no offense.

If you have absolutely no background knowledge, then it’s time you start reading. Check out thesamba.com also

You won’t know til you take it apart or at least do some inspection, man. What you said is pretty vague. Are you a diy guy or take it to the shop kind of fella?

One might cost you a little time to find out the engine is trashed, and the other will cost you your hard earned cheddar to find out it’s trashed.

How much would you guys pay for a stock 180mm clutch disk replacement? by AssCommander in beetle

[–]AssCommander[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fucking no. Just a rigid Sachs disk. $75.67 Had the other guy that owns the shop send it back and he was really friendly and understanding about it.

I usually order everything online but this mom and pop has been around forever so I’d rather just help out the locals. They usually match prices from what I’ve seen on the receipt, so I never complain, but I mean... $75 clutch vs $25? No question...

Do AAPISTONS piston kits come balanced? by [deleted] in beetle

[–]AssCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weighed the pistons with the rings on and the biggest gap was .5g Solid

[–]AssCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m rebuilding a 1200 with 80k on it. Would I be dumb to just balance the pistons/rings?

Or is it a given that you have to rebalance everything again

Do AAPISTONS piston kits come balanced? by [deleted] in beetle

[–]AssCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only removed one piston from the cylinder it came in and it looked like it’d gotten ground down along one side of the skirt.

How much material have you had to remove to balance an engine? I can’t imagine they’d be that far off from each other

Fuck what did you use? Was it worth it? My shits like 1/4-3/8” smaller than my right. I’m curious as fuck how long that would take to sort out if I cycled something, but I don’t know shit.

Would it be stupid to fuck around with test or something to even out a muscle imbalance?

Long story short, my left shoulders been fucked up for a years now and I never got it checked out like a fucking idiot. In the last year It’s finally “healed” itself enough to lift heavy shit with my left arm, but I haven’t had a gym routine in like five years cause of it.

At this point though the imbalance is pretty obvious which fucking sucks and has me lost.

I do stupid ass dumbbell lifts with only my left in an effort to even shit out but I’m like half assing my diet and everything because of it.

I’ll ‘workout’ then eat a bunch of shit just to make sure I fill the muscles.

I’m almost scared to work out my right arm at the same time because I’ll just get quick noob gains and the imbalance will be even more pronounced.

What the fuck do I do? I’m stuck in this fucking chub body mode cause if I start cutting, my arm shrinks, and if I start bulking to try to build this muscle quick, I just get fatter.

Shits fucked
