Turbo VW Beetle with Total Seal Ring Install | JW Classic VW

[@JWClassicVW]

Thanks for tuning in everyone!! Have a great day and don't forget to leave a comment below... got a question let's hear it!

[@MrTheHillfolk]

Get ready for leakdown tests so low you think your gauge is broken. And it's nice to see the breather not working so hard either. I had a set of gapless top rings made for a TDI-m I built years ago. Since it was so new back then ,they wanted a sample of the ring pack so I sent them in for inspection. They were impressed with the quality of the rings ,so I got a new set and sent them in for modification. Back then ,it was only like 35$ to mod a top ring to gapless. Knowing they can mod any ring or supply them, I'd never rebuild another engine without em. Also,I'm a big fan of the dry cylinder lube. If it's good enough for a top fueler to put a slug in "dry" then it's good enough for me 😬

[@JWClassicVW]

Good info brother!! cant wait to do the leak down and a compression check too!! First time I've used the total seal rings but I've heard great stuff!

[@topdowntoads3684]

I like your performance tech tips thanks

[@JWClassicVW]

Glad you like them!

[@VWBEETLEOVAL1955]

You have a good plier to get those piston rings on now👍 never saw that sort off paste to work those cilinders in. Be sure to change that oil after running in that motor🤔 O did I say calendar??🤣🤣🤣

[@JWClassicVW]

Changing the oil is going to be a must 4 sure! Appreciate your support brother and I got you in on the calendar drawing!!

[@jimmywilkinson9190]

Even though the cam vs.lifters are broke in , it still mite be good to drive it 10 miles and change the oil and get rid of all debris !

[@JWClassicVW]

Oh I'm definitely going to do that!

[@270billycraven]

Sweet Calendar

[@JWClassicVW]

lol.... thanks for the love brother!

[@shaunc8189]

Awesome work!!! Just want to say tho not sure if you did do it or not don’t forget to file the burs of the rings where you used the ring grinder on them. You need a very fine “diamond” file

[@JWClassicVW]

I did... just used some 1000 Grit sand paper. There weren't any real burs to remove. 😀

[@briantomczak7608]

Love to watch all the tech stuff. Can't wait to see it run. Not a big fan of over built bugs but it's yours not mine. A bug calendar would be sweet... your fun to watch..

[@JWClassicVW]

Thanks Brian... glad you enjoyed the video brother!! Yeah my next project is going to be a bone stock VW!

Looking good Jason. When on the “calendar “ 😎 do you think you will fire it up?

Lololololol, I see what you did there... I'm hoping for early March!

Me tooooo! Can't wait man... it's been so hard not driving her.

[@jcmaosaobra2791]

increased compression, increased carbonization with risk of rings locking, increased preventive maintenance

[@JWClassicVW]

Great point!

[@j.brentadams9572]

So just curious. What bore and stroke is a 2287? I thought 86x94 was 2387. What is your combo?

[@JWClassicVW]

This is 86x92 thick wall

[@j.brentadams9572]

Ahh, got it. Not a common combo so it tripped me up!

[@carlgenis514]

Holy shit your supposed to gap the oil rings too 🤦 I'm surprised that my turbocharged zx3 fully built by me is still running, I'm running 25psi and my 1 and 2 ring's are gapped 10 thousandths More than the suggested gap that came with the fordge pistons, but no where did it say I needed to gap the oil ring's

[@JWClassicVW]

Lol... yes sir for most rings yes. For the total seal it's a must. As always I'd consult the manufacturer of your specific rings.
