Beautifully restored engine! Thank you for sharing!

Just a few notes. The flywheel should be machined equally on both surfaces. Disc surface and pressure plate mounting surface to retain the correct distance. Also the main issue with these old factory dual carbs are the throttle shaft bushings. Absolutely make sure the shaft/bushings are perfect. There is a huge write up on the correct steps to adjust/set the carbs. When they are perfect there is nothing better as a dual carb setup but if one thing out of 30 adjustments is out they are hours and hours and hours of diagnosing.

I really enjoy to see your videos! Excellent made! As my 1952 NSU kick-lambretta needed same coparable support some years ago I am really ecited to see you working on the right engine side which I could not finish finally. Everything else is comparably easy to fix I feel… so I left out gearbox as well as right side main sealing. So the scooter is running well, but consuming and loosing gearbox oil. Luckily not leaking into the brake. Frank

can you give me some more info on the 3 white numbers on the tins i have 340 on my tin ?/

would this fit in a 914?

Next time, if you take the carrier bolts out at the top of the gearbox bell housing you can drop the engine down with the gearbox with the engine totally complete. I think you need to undo the small screw for the gearchange linkage and pull the linkage off the front of the gearbox so it doesn't bend.

Hi did you make a video of the gearbox side crankcase rebuild on the NSU Prima D? I couldn't find it

Excellent videos. Very comprehensive.

good one

Excellent video on my first ride as a kid back in 1972 I had 5 of these little mopeds and paid between £3 and £ 5 each before moving up to an NSU Quickly 😊

That van is an absolute beauty! Great series watching you bring it back and enjoying it!

Thanks for that. I put a lot of hope to your videos. I will start my restoration when you finish your records, otherwise I'll stuck waiting for instructions ;-). Hurry up! summer is about to come. When next chapter?

Appreciate these videos, its a big help. Just inherited a 73/74 westfalia with the same engine and carbs. Thinking about pulling the heads to check everything though. Ill have to check your channel to see if you have a breakdown

This by far the best video series on the T2 engine I have seen so far. You have helped answers a lot of question I have about restoring my 1972 T2 with a replacement engine which I still trying to sort out

ooh sailor 😂

Hello there, my father found a NSU prima in his shed not so long ago and these videos are motivating me to restore it. This series is very informative and will be great help for when i'm stumped on whatever problem I might face. 👌👌can't wait for the next video.

In which position do you install the needle? Original or what?

Hi - is the Prima a good choice for a first "resto"? - how simple is it for a novice to work on..?

Thanks for another engaging update. I'm unlikely to ever work on one of these, but it's fascinating none the less. On the other hand, I AM about to pull the Type 4 engine out of my 1977 Bay for an 'ancillaries refresh', so will be leaning heavily on that excellent earlier series of yours. 😊 Just need to find a vapour blaster in West London to get that 'factory fresh' look!

see you soon 😊

Nylon locknuts of the exhaust studs??? I'm intrigued!

Da iawn, diolch! Gweld ti tro nesaf!

Thank you for keep sharing new update, this is great for sharing, keep safe and stay connected..

Someone beat that hub like it owed them money 😂. Good to see you're back with another video!

Can u get parts for these in Ireland

Learning a lot about my type 4 engine by watching these vids. Thanks!

Hell yeah we need morel

Just goes to show we did have it right before they tried to brain wash us

Top Work

Looks unreal. Definitely doing it next time it runs. What kind of distance/time is it?

Danke!

Thank you very much for this video, it helped me a lot. 🙋

Did you purchase the engine turn key or you rebuilt it

Gracias... Que gran trabajo. Buen video.. jamás había puesto atención en estos motores gracias por mostrarlo con profesionalismo.

I noticed some gouging in the head flats. I suggest decking it on 800-1200 grit sandpaper.

An easier way to remove the pilot bearing from the rear of the crankshaft is to just stuff white bread into the hole using the clutch alignment tool. The bread dough will force the old bearing out. Only takes a couple slices of white bread to do the job. Use only the white bread, no the crust.

another great vid. . and a lovely van. . Al.

My father bought me a second hand one of these in 1972 for £10. I was 15 and knew nothing about mechanics, nor did my father. Consequently it kept me very fit as it was a pig to start and I spent more time peddling like a lunatic to get it started, which on occasion it did. The rear wheel was on the ground even when the bike was on the stand, so I had to literally pedal or run with the bike. That flimsy stand design was absolutely diabolical. Oh happy days 😅😅😅 they came with a large rigid bag that sat on the back for shopping, so I assume it was aimed at the female market.

fab series thank for taking us with you. . Al.

Is that a petronix ignition?

🤗😍

Just about to launch into this, so finding a non-american voice to guide me is much appreciated. Great vids.

And when something about the engine? are you going to touch it?

So happy to se your la new video. You made my day

Great to see a new video 👍

How did you get it so clean? Thanks, Dave

Thoroughly impressed!!
