    Glad the beetles driving again! That dual carb setup made the WORLD of difference. Cannot wait to see the 1000sp airing out!!!

    12v starter issues- been into aircooled for many years. Best money I recently spent was converting some of my cars to the ‘high torque’ USA made starters from CIP1. Vast improvement to the OG design

      Good to know, man! I’ll probably do that for the Beetle and 1000SP!

    Early cars have a trouble with the starter wiring. Get a Bosch WR1 12v hard start relay.

    What do you mean when you say "hot start"? Like when the engine is already warm? If its that, it's hard to start unless you do what the manual says... FLOOR IT, crank the engine, let off when it starts. Cold start is push the gas pedal down 2x, turn the key til it starts.

    Try putting electronic points. My bus starts up hot no problem. It’s cold that gives me problems 😆

    I always thought the 700 could’ve benefited from a type 3 setup as well.

    I could be wrong, but maybe part of your hot start issue is the hewt riser in the intake manifold? Does it struggle to stay running when its up to temp? Hard starting and hard to keep running were two issues I had when my heat riser was completely plugged off from carbon build up in the heat riser

    Starter is heat related failure.. swap the starter out.

    Since your so good with Volkswagens. Take a look at the VW Hormiga from Brazil or better yet the VW Trakbayan from the Philippines 🇵🇭!
    It looks like a utility van, people carrier, front mounted VW air cooled engine and best of all its front wheel drive!!!

    • @JohnLudwick
      @JohnLudwick  3 місяці тому

      @JohnLudwick You've got to import one Brazilian Hormiga. Unfortunately you can't get a hold of a Trakbayan coz they made so few & its too far to your place. Keep the videos coming!
