My first air cooler (type 4) so excuse my possible ignorance, but does a normal good running type 4 sound a little clangy and tappy until you rev her up a bit? Have the timing set and good plugs Also adjusted the valves. Just wanted to know if things are normal or maybe I have big problems. Thanks

Great I’ll get on it, not at all trying to be insulting here but a little bit of self conscious or sound conscious came over me when I thought how it’s going to sound in a iPhone video (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) also I’ve put new brake lines, hoses, master cylinder And adjust the space between the MS and the pedal rod about 1/2” of pedal before it hits the MS, rebuild rear calipers and adjusted venting, got good flow from the upper bleeder valve on all four wheels, front calipers are functioning as far as I can see they both stop the rotors from spinning when the brakes were applied. So I have good pedal goes down a couple inches and not spongy at all but you have to press real hard to get decent brakes I mean I pressed hard enough were you could feel the MS mount flex a tiny bit but I was pressing probably way harder then you should. I read you have to bleed the proportioning valve also? And is it possible that I have frozen pistons on The front calipers so only one out of the two are working maybe? Thanks
