VW aircooled engine: Valve clearance adjustment

There are many videos on how to adjust your valve clearances on KZbin but I want to cover every step of this engine build in my series. In this video I explain simply and clearly how to set your all important valve clearances and also how to install your ignition leads in the correct formation.
This is a clear, in depth step by step guide on how to build an aircooled VW engine so check out my other videos if you are building or thinking about building your own engine.
Please like and subscribe which is completely free and not miss out on future episodes. Thanks Jamie

Thank you. Will be posting new videos soon. Jamie

Coming along nicely. There’s not too many videos on the 123 ignition for the Veedub on here, any chance you could show us from start to finish how it sets up and times up, bit of an idiot guide for an idiot like me😂

[@jamiedowson6482]

Thank you. Yes, that's a great idea and I most defiantly will. I actually did touch on the subject in a previously video as my 64 beetle was suffering from a backfire that I thought may have been due to the 123. I would like to try it with this new engine to see how it runs. Jamie

Great, looking forward to to that, and yep I watched your troubleshooting on the 64👍🏼

@@philp4842 I'll try and make a better video just about set up

I've been looking at the 123 ignition. I can't find them here in the States. I also see a lot about an accuspark set up available over in Europe. Does anyone have an opinion on those?

Hello, 123 ignition is a Dutch company I believe and are also what is inside the CSP distributors that look true to an original Bosch unit. There is also a company call CSI Ignition, another Dutch company that I have used on British cars through work that work very well. Jamie
