NSU Prima Restoration Part 6 - Engine Disassembly, Right Side
It's been a while since the previous video, so thanks for your patience! A shed clear-out, elusive Lambretta tools and the day job have meant the wait for this video was longer than expected, but here it is in all of its glory! Enjoy!

    For anyone doing the altenator bearings: the two bearings are different sizes. The one which is on the shaft is a 051903221A bearing and the one in the housing is a 6203 RS C3. It is better to search for these parts numbers rather than "VW 1973 alternator bearings" as they cost $6 if you find by the parts number rather than $40 if you buy from a vw distributor. Also, there is a useful tool I found while doing this for removing the bearings. You can look for "bearing puller kits" online that are not too expensive. I spent an hour trying to dremel mine off and wasn't able to get it. The bearing puller kit took it off in 3 minutes including setup time. Great videos by the way, they are just what I needed to fix up my bus!

    Just a few notes. The flywheel should be machined equally on both surfaces. Disc surface and pressure plate mounting surface to retain the correct distance. Also the main issue with these old factory dual carbs are the throttle shaft bushings. Absolutely make sure the shaft/bushings are perfect. There is a huge write up on the correct steps to adjust/set the carbs. When they are perfect there is nothing better as a dual carb setup but if one thing out of 30 adjustments is out they are hours and hours and hours of diagnosing.
