it’s very important that people do that ; losen those bolts. The engine is looking good. I love you clips with the additional picture aids... the joker...😀. Take care brother
I know you could do it, you are very handy my friend. Stay safe, healthy, and happy! I hope you and your family have a very wonderful and merry Christmas.
You should use Vaseline only to prime oil pumps because it has a melting temp of about 115 degrees F. Some high temperature greases may never melt at engine temperatures and can clog an oil passage. As bad as Permatex silicone in your engine if it's high temperature wheel bearing grease or something. Nice work on this engine!
Another helpful video thank you. I think I may have to change my oil pump gaskets in the future but first I am just trying to get the thing running again.
Los engranajes de bomba de aceite de vw escarabajo 1300 es de 22mm??? Se podria colocar una de alto flujo es decir de 30mm encaja en agujero de la bomba????
Hi Slade, thanks for all your videos. Does it matter if the face plate goes on the same way it came off, or can you turn it 90 degrees so the wear is even?
my 72 beetle is a 1641 now can i bolt on a aftermarket oil filter like empi straight on and be ok and an aftermarket oil cooler just thinking ? good wrenching all:)
How do you break in your rebuilds, do you do the same for a full rebuild than a new piston and rings rebuild only, could you please make a video on how you do it? I've learned a lot by just watching your videos, thanks for sharing.
Another great video Slades. Hope you had an awesome Christmas. I know I did I got lots of tools. Very helpful video definitely different from the modern oil pumps that they have on cars nowadays.
Thank you!! I had a wonderful Christmas! The whole family was together which made it awesome! Tools are a good thing!! I got a lot of stuff, almost too much. And some gift cards. I hope your Christmas was great!
Two questions: if you loosen the block bolts do you still need a special puller tool to get the pump out or will it just slip out? And if new nuts are not available can you re use them with sealer around them?
Brother Slade I would just like to bring to your attention what might be called "a discrepancy of information" on the final assembly of the gasket installation. The outer most gasket should be mounted dry...and here is the reason for that. You will notice the pump body has an annular groove machined into it, This is a weep passage to carry oil back into the pump should the gasket fail. You will also notice that there are 2 holes in the paper gasket, they are to allow the wept oil to travel from behind the gasket.." in the weep passage" back into the pump. By using gasket goo you block the weep passage and the weep holes. Lawrence
Thanks brother!! Ya know, I had a debate about that part with someone. I was made to feel I was wrong. So I used it on both. I’ll try and see if I can get into the UA-cam studio, and edit that part or show a text caption!! Thank you!!!
Hi, i got a Permatex "High Tack" Gasket Sealant instead of Aviation Gasket. It states that it 'Adheres & seals from -65* to 500* F'. Is this ok or should I stick to Aviation Gasket only? Thx
@@SladesVWBeetle i saw in the vid that you had a long sleeve shirt on so i knew some cooler weather had arrived there. 50's is nice. near freezing here. it'll pass. you'll probably go cold and we'll get warm.
Yeah as I get older the colds not as fun. I have a torpedo heater, but not cold enough yet. But geeez that thing heats up thr garage fast, but it's loud!!
@@redshirt-scotty I was finally able to buy things as my kids got older. When they were young I was broke doing as I should for them. Now I'm trying to catch up 🤦♂️🤣
I’ve never tried to do it with the engine installed. I think it would be extremely difficult. For as fast as these motors come out, you’re better off doing it on the floor. Oddly enough next weeks video is engine removal. 😂😂
Hi Slade, how do you know when your oil pump is going bad? Would the front dash oil warning light turn on or you just have to take it apart after so many miles and inspected visually?
Another Gem from Slades, simple but very eloquent cheers buddy
Thank you Jamie. I truly appreciate that!! Thanks for being here!

Yes absolutely to get the pump out much easier. Some don't do that. Thanks brother and thanks for being here.
what a nice guy , I`ve learned so much from this channel
at 6:20 do you put sealant on both sides of the paper gasket before the cover goes on?
Yes, but do not block the tiny little passage holes. That is the important part.
Always lighthearted yet very informative! Thanks.

I always love your videos, for a guy trying to teach himself you’ve been a big help. Keep ‘em coming!
Thank you so much Dustin, I truly appreciate the nice comment. And most of all thanks for being part of the community. Much, much more to come.
@@SladesVWBeetle ok8⁸⁸
I couldn’t have even installed the gasket, and the gasket installation looked simple, 😂! Thanks for sharing, y’all stay safe! Merry Christmas!
I know you could do it, you are very handy my friend. Stay safe, healthy, and happy! I hope you and your family have a very wonderful and merry Christmas.
@@SladesVWBeetle thanks and same to you and the family!
Excellent teaching, Slade. Thank you.
Thank you!!!
I've used several bits of information from your videos this week. Thanks for the great information!
Thanks William! I'm glad they're helping. Thats what its all about!

The pump I received had the gear punch marks facing different directions out of the box...one faced forward the other aft. Is that wrong?
What’s the best way to remove a gasket that is like super glued to the case? Lol I’ve tried everything
Hey Hector,
Great work! I would have had everything all over the place, 😂!
😂😂
Thanks for the video.
You’re very welcome! And thank you very much for being here.

Will a CB Performance Full Flow Oil pump fit on a 1500? Would I need to modify the engine tin to have room for it? Thanks!

@@SladesVWBeetle Yes it was I also had all my family over too. Everyone enjoyed themselves and my mom cooked an amazing dinner the ham was so good.
Two questions: if you loosen the block bolts do you still need a special puller tool to get the pump out or will it just slip out? And if new nuts are not available can you re use them with sealer around them?
Can this be done with the tin removed and pulley removed instead of having to pull the engine? Let me know your thoughts please
Honestly it can be done, but it has a very tight area to work in, But yes it can be done
great video. I am about to do this and have one question
When you loosen up those 3 nuts, won't that break the gasket sealant between the two halves?
If you mean the case halves, no.

Thanks again brother! I figured out I could go into the editor inside UA-cam and edit that part out. I appreciate that!

I’m sure that will work too. I’ve stuck with the aviation stuff for a while
If the pump is bad, will the engine have a tappet noise from being dry? And the oil pressure light not go out? Thanks.
It’s is VERY possible!! I wouldn’t run it until you figure it out!
Thank you
You’re very welcome, and thank you for taking the time to leave a comment.
getting cold there yet? just had first light snow here a couple days ago
Its ranging in the 50s right now, but looks like next week the 40s. I always forget over the summer how much I don't like winter. 🙄

Should the block be tightened before the bolts on the oil pump ? Or does it matter
I just tighten them in the end. I've never had an issue. You can do it either way im sure! Thanks for being here.
Hi Slade, can you do it with the engine in?
I imagine it could be done, but it would be so much easier to drop the motor down to be honest with you.
Engine need to be removed?
Or is something you can do with engine installed, my idea is to install a pump with oil filter
I’ve never tried to do it with the engine installed. I think it would be extremely difficult. For as fast as these motors come out, you’re better off doing it on the floor. Oddly enough next weeks video is engine removal. 😂😂
I have an aftermarket exhaust, but I didnt pull thengine and was able to do it
I would have just snugged up the oil pump nuts, torqued the three case bolts, then torqued the pump bolts.
Hi Slade, how do you know when your oil pump is going bad? Would the front dash oil warning light turn on or you just have to take it apart after so many miles and inspected visually?
You would watch for your oil warning light to come on. But also remember those sending units can go bad so you would have to test it.
Done all this still leaks .
😳😳 That’s very odd. Did you torque properly? I am quite sure you did I never had one leak.
check your instagram messages
Can you just put an oil filter housing instead of the basic base plate? Thanks!!!
Thanks for the videos
Thank you Samuel, and thank you so much for leaving a comment.
