| Rear Wheel Bearing Frustration | 30 Oct 2007 22:20 GMT | 4 |
I have been struggling with my right rear wheel bearing. The inner
bearing came out no problem with only a hammer and improvised drift.
The outer bearing is not coming so easily. Speedy Jim's website makes
it sound like it should come out with only a hammer and drift, but

Hey all,
I'm interested in obtaining a type 1 engine. I've seen some supplier's
on the web that sell 1600 to 2180 cc engines, new or rebuilt.
Are there some suppliers to avoid?

Well, I finally had to throw in the towel and go to a professional VW
mechanic. I had simply done all I could. But I informed him all I did,
and he was able to take it from there and have it fixed in less than a
half hour. Since I had verified there were no fuel problems, and then

Recovered from the cemetery ride?
Was the rest of the week equally eventful?
You should really have taken a pic of the car before you reversed out of
the graveyard, that would have been a great screensaver!

OK, I I think have to replace my solonoid....(very intermittant no-crank
situation - turn key to start, idiot lights dim *slightly*). I replaced the
ignition switch a couple years ago, no change. Mind you, this only happens
extremely infrequently (like once a year?). So I suspect ...

I had some stalling (no idle) on my '71 bus. with a '78 front end.
it would idle when I plugged the vacuum line to the servo.

Almost every night before the sun goes down, a small plague of insects
gather on my 1973 lunar yellow Beetle and leave orange speckled
deposits. That's right! Tiny little orange brown spots.

| Transaxle Stuck | 25 Oct 2007 12:50 GMT | 1 |
My '68 Beetle w/1600cc won't shift into neutral. Clutch arm moves on
transaxle, and from the shifter, it feels as if one can shift through
all the gears BUT she stays in gear whatever I do or say. I was deep
in the woods (she's a Baja conversion) when I thought I had broken the
