Now snapgap.us is selling valve adjustment kits for VW/type 4 engines. Check out their products. Really cool stuff. I’m not affiliated in any way.

I have my set sitting on the shelf waiting for The next adjustment. I may actually be able to do the valves with the engine in.

QUOTE(914dave @ Oct 11 2019, 04:16 AM)  I have my set sitting on the shelf waiting for The next adjustment. I may actually be able to do the valves with the engine in. For spaces where the T-handled wrench does not fit without removal of components (or dropping the engine), you can use a 1/4 drive to tighten the small cap screw and a standard torque wrench set to 10Nm to do the torquing with whatever extensions you need. I know that my '78SC is not a 914 set up, but here are some pics of me working around the CAT on the left exhaust bank.   |
