It’s like this. You know you have the part. You’re not sure where. But you know you have it. So you start to remember projects you’ve done. Or the last time you were in a certain tote or storage building. You work from there. A hoarde is a hoarde
I might be in the minority here as a retired lady but I just love this channel! Mustie, your delight and skill in getting all kinds of things working again is amazing to watch. Thanks for putting out all this great content!!

Hi Mr Crawford !! Im such a grat Fan from Mustie 1 !! I like the Way, dont trash it,repair it !!! Good Greets from Bavaria !!! God bless America !! and Stay All Healthy Sir !!
Before Musty1 I could never see myself watching a 1hr+ video. Now I’m disappointed every time one comes to an end. I could watch for hours easily. Always a pleasure.
Boy did you bring back memories. While away at college with my 63 beetle had one of the valves break when I was up around 65 on an interstate. Towed the car back to the apartment, pulled the engine (it was spring and outside) and found the problem- a busted valve. A $100.00 engine (guaranteed to run but no time length) installed and took us on our honeymoon to the east coast -from Chicagoland- and back. Rebuilt the engine with the busted valve and drove it for a long time. All done under the vehicle, alone with few tools. Great little engines, was a lot of fun. Now-a-days (53 years later) it's a 3 year old Honda that I don't even self-change the oil. Same honeymoon lady, we're finding out about the preachers words "in sickness and health" meant, but still enjoying life. JimM
$40 parts plus $200K tools, plus $100K tuition, plus $1 million experience, plus infinite wealth of common sense equals a $40 fix! Love it when you fondle the hoard! Thanks, great video!
This man is a legend. Once in a blue moon he doesn't win but very rarely. It's so fascinating to watch him pull an engine apart and rebuild it to run spot on. Great video mustie
But.... we have Mustie1 and VGG and others creating content to compliment books of old. So, that hopefully the skills of troubleshooting won't be lost forever.
I do too. There are a few trolls that comment on his videos, picking everything apart that he does, but they just don't have the skills and presence to put together a channel like Mustie's. Jealousy reigns!
The stuff of good dreams!!. When I first followed Mustie, this is the type of thing you did, it’s good to be back....Its how to make a boring Sunday brilliant.Thank You Pal.
Of course it will be saved. This is Mustie1 doncha know. Love your laugh when you get to create some fire in these old junkers. Keep up the great work sir.......
Fine line between you tube star and excessively frugal middle aged man trying to avoid having to work 9-5. And believe me, I'm not being critical. I've been there, well except the part where I was a you tube star. But I was raising little kids. Been back in the workforce full time since 2017 but I had a long run 2002 to 2017 working part time and watching kids. It's all good. Really enjoy your videos especially your attitude when things don't go the way you expect. I'm working on that when I fix things and in life in general. You get what you get and it's often not what a person expects to get. Wish they'd teach that stuff in school.
And that's how you put together a good engine from another 3 bad one's parts. Bringing back to life such a "frankenstein" is priceless. Great job Mustie!!!!!
I enjoy watching the carburetor rebuild, especially when you find a plugged or dirty jet. The feeling of success when the engine starts and runs smoothly, knowing that the carburetor is clean and tuned just right. Awesome!!
How to transform a total pile of junk into an absolute sweetheart! And for less than a synthetic oil change. Darren you're a national treasure 🇺🇸🦅 salute from FL 🙋
When the engine started I smiled 🥰 I’m probably one of the few females at my age especially, that loves that sound! Love my bug and other vintage VW’s ♥️
Something about the calm easy work through on your videos makes me wish I was a nicer person. They are also really relaxing and my appreciation for how thorough you are is very appeasing to my OCD. Kudos
Yeah, that and all the other things wrong; roached valves/valvetrain, all the blow-by, general neglect, not enough oil changes (or a crappy oil change interval). So the modularity of the engine is its strength by far--separate crankcase, cylinders and cylinder heads. And Mustie has a stash to die for. I should've delved into air-cooled VWs early on because nowadays you have to be a hardcore enthusiast to score the parts and vehicles.
Dear w. 👍👌👏 Yeah! I really thought/hoped that great Mustie1 would transfer all his stash to the new, big and dry location. Best regards, luck and health.
@@PabloDiablo682 idk he has a massive amount of components. He may not have enough space for all of them at his new location. He may keep majority of the items where they are because he has the space to store them.

Great inspiration for folks with a few tools, some time and some air-cooled VWs in the backyard. Darren in his element. Educational entertainment! Thanks, Darren!
Mustie1, That hoard of yours really paid off AGAIN for you on this one! Very Nice work, very nice indeed! That valve spring compressor mechanism worked well for you! Have a good week!!
Mustie1 you have taught me so much over the past two years I’ve been watching you I swear it’s like free engine mechanics weather it be one, two, four, or six cylinders you have taught me so much! I seriously appreciate your knowledge and explanations in every video you do ! This is coming from someone with absolutely no engine knowledge as of almost three years now to being able to diagnose my own issues and every time reverting back to your videos if I have a question or problem.. my man thank you so much keep up with the amazing work!
Mustie I really enjoy your vids. I worked with an old fellow who was a repairer and fixer i often found lawn mower engines and tell him the previous owner said that the engine would never run again..Fred always proved them wrong.
I think we all enjoy the first firery starts of the VW engine after so many years and the laugh and chuckle that follows that. We learn from the master and are entertained.

Mustie 1. I am blown away at your very keen memory. Especially, the extent of your hoard. A good hoarder acts oblivious to where things are to the knowledge of others. BUT knows exactly where every item is!!!
The other day, my wife and I were taking apart an old futon. I told her that I was going to put a little who's your daddy on a stubborn bolt. She asked who I was hanging around with. Thanks for the VW adventure as I have learned a lot.
Interesting ring compressor. Designed for installing cylinder on the piston, instead of piston into the cylinder. I had my doubts on this engine, but with enough spare parts, anything’s possible.
The joys of air cooled vw. I had doubts when I was a teen. Til I built my junk engine and drove it all over for years and years. Never had to get towed. Always made it back.
Damn... feel bad for ya up there. Digging in the snow to get to parts. I’m here in my garage with a cup of coffee watching you. I’m is shorts and a tee shirt! 🤪
@@DaBossk I used to love it. Then I got frost nip when I was in the military, now not so much. Have to work twice as hard to keep half as warm!🤪 Used to be that the cold was an annoyance at best, now it is a true pain!
I'm so happy to find this channel. I used to own just VWs in my younger days and learned how to work on cars watching & helping my father wrench. Thanks Mustie1
Yep. As I recall, the heads torque at about 24? lbs. Not very much. Any more and the studs pull out of the case, which is a problem on these engines anyway.
Lost a hour, gained a Mustie1 laugh! 9 times outta 10 Mustie1 can make ‘er run! Another good engine for a restoration project. Oh no.....now Mustie1 has to go and get a Vdub to restore! No end to the projects, I like it! This is Vdub engine overhaul 101! Love from NW Colorado. Thanxz
When I was taught to lap valves they would test the seal afterwards by putting the valves in, without springs etc., put the head cylinder side up on the bench and before they went home for the night they would fill the area the valves seat in with petrol. The petrol had to still be there in the morning!
Take a triangular file and put grooves across the threads of the nuts to give the crud somewhere to go. This is not to cut new threads, only for cleaning them. 26 years as a machinist taught me this trick.
I can’t wait to watch your videos every Sunday when I wake up. I get my coffee and sit back on the couch and watch what you got yourself into this week. Keep it up. Looking forward to many more.
Hey Mustie,what we use to do to adjust our carbs was to push a old piece of rubber hose on the screw so the hose stuck out pretty far and do the adjusting that way without screwing around with a screwdriver
Hey Mustie, I know this is an old video, but I just wanted to say thanks. I've learned a lot from your channel, but this one in particular saved me from a whole top end job. Thanks again!
How satisfying to see an old engine come back to life. I don't own a vw. I have no immediate plans to buy a VW but if one day I happen to come across a bargain, your videos will be incredibly valuable! You sir are one amazing mechanic.
That is the most amazing thing I've seen. Take a rusted basically junk engine and turn into a running engine with parts laying around. I wonder how easy it would be to do that with an engine made now 30 years from now. I bet it couldn't be done especially if it was just laying on the ground rusting.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane, my Dad and did this job in December 1978 on a 1970 bug engine, it was only 8 years old at the time, but watching the process took me back. The VW was a hand-me-down graduation present for me - I was supposed to have finished the previous May but not the best student. The engine needed work but the body was shot so I got a barn find and went to work - thanks again.
Mustie1 has the memory of a squirrel. How he remembers where all these parts are squirrelled away is amazing!
Nah, Squirrels forget where 80% of their nuts are! Mustie is more like a Truffle Pig. That is a compliment by the way :)

Legend has it, when Mustie was born, He drove his parents home in a VW T1
Just don't ask where he built the engine to do it :-)
They say that when he was born, a VW key materialized into his hand right hand, in the other, the cup he uses to check fuel. It's the regalia of VW!
After it was sitting for 17 years in a barn. As it started, he gave a maniacal laugh and drove them home.
I've heard that story before so it Must-ie be true 😂🤣
There's something immensely satisfying about resurrecting dead VW engines. I can hear the pleasure in your voice.
Just love when old stuff comes back to life ,with everything being computerized the skills and parts are slowly dying , thanks mustie
I agree,which is why I watch Mustie and VGG :-)
But.... we have Mustie1 and VGG and others creating content to compliment books of old. So, that hopefully the skills of troubleshooting won't be lost forever.
With no place to hook up a scanner on vintage VW tecks today wood be lost in diagnosis the problems
I like that Mustie is not obsessed by perfection. Common sense rules.
I do too. There are a few trolls that comment on his videos, picking everything apart that he does, but they just don't have the skills and presence to put together a channel like Mustie's. Jealousy reigns!

When that engine starts, your laugh reminds of Dr. Frankenstein as his monster came to life. 😂😂😂

Love the video Mustie. Very glad you gave the extra effort and brought it back from the dead. Enjoy it
Thank you Darren I learned so much. These are the kind of videos that really helps A guy like me out
