It's new video sunday. Part 3 of my 2056 engine rebuild. Some of it didn't go as planned (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif).

Enjoy.

Sorry, Ian. More time and $$ required (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pinch.gif)

Ugh - that sucks a bit - but I know the feeling.

I have also just finished my first rebuild and am dropping at the shop to do the first start up....

Good luck getting this fixed. Helpful videos - planning a rebuild on my 2.0 as well.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I hope it is not too bad.

When I did my 2056, I must have closed the case 2-3 times before sealing it, just to check all of this (empty with bearing only, then add crank, ...).

I ran into a similar situation where my align bore was not done right (not deep enough in the middle bearing).

Everything has to be checked... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Following with interest. Thank you for preparing these videos! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Ugh. Maybe just a small problem. Hope it's resolved easily. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif)

All good. Just part of the process. And why it takes a while to do anything right.
Appreciate all of the suggestions and feedback here and on YouTube. This community never ceases to amaze. I should hear from the machinist this weeks and will keep y’all posted...

I suspect rear bearing rotated out of dowel pin or the others up front. Ruined a set myself that way.

Definitely possible. But I triple checked how everything was seated...and the rub marks inside the thrust bearing were 90 degrees from the dowel pin. Will report back once I hear from the shop...

Ian, I had the same many years ago assembling a beetle case.
Got stuck while tightening the case bolts. I did not try it half way like you did, so after the torqueing I was looking very proud what I had achieved only to find up it was locked up, just like you have.
I split the case and found a bearing that moved and the dowelpin pressed itself in the bearing while tightening the bolts. Really, it pressed a new dowelhole in there. So...I got a new bearing and redid it. Same thing...but now I found out while tightening....but already too late, another bearing unusable, again the bearing seemed to have moved away from the dowelpin. I ordered another one, and now in the correct size (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Measuring is so important (besides cleaning) since the tolerances are critical.
Good luck with the build, it is super great to see you building this engine.
