well, i just re-assembled the whole engine after shift problems and now it won't idle, i tried to adjust the cable but won't work... is there an adjustment on the carb that i can screw with to help with throttle. cuz if i just barly push down the throttle it will keep runnin, but thats it. also, having a leak now on the right pipe (well, its white smoke, so coolant, how do i fix this.

5 years ago i built my own baja beetle from a 66 chassis and a 60 body, have a dune buggy, its old VW shortend 14 inch, fiber glass body. broke the chassis so we got a fully built tube one now. Berrien Buggy they are the best for a small VW powered buggy, they are ALL over here in michigan.

got the flywheel/generator... i dunno what its really called but mine looks like hell and i need to find a better one.

well, i dug into it more tonight and that screw that holds the shift shaft kinda in the right place (with the spring) is snapped in half and there is nothing on it... can anyone find the right page so i can order the right parts tomorrow?

well, i figured it all out. that plug/pin that was missing really just got pushed inside the case, and the other side came out. im guessing that someone tried rebuilding it and didn't put the e-clips back in, and didn't put any plugs on. so now i gotta redo all that. i was at the local shop and they didn't have a manual but can someone give me an idea of what all needs to be taken apart to get those e-clips back in... also, my clutch was fucked, the back plate was completely shattered. (clip is 17, and the plug is 18) sorry for the side of the pic.

im interested, but would this fit in a 94?

im lookin for tranny parts. are those goin with the engine or no?

damn, i want the internals if it worked good... shipped to 49424? edit: also that lil plug i lost... shift fork shaft plug...

any idea if the 87 tranny stuff will work in a 94?

im not into the Shee's yet so don't wanna low ball, but how much for full engine and how much for the tranny internals and that shift fork plug that i have been lookin for... raleylund (aim) [email protected] so let me know ASAP, please

so yeah... BUMP! where can i get parts cheap... or a full engine/tranny. ANYONE?

it would pop into gear and shake really hard when i was getting it towed home. i tend to feel the temp of my oil to try and get a general idea of the temp... cuz i don't have a temp gauge on it (thinkin of installin one depending on if i can get one cheap) if it wasn't full then it was EXTREMELY close... it wasn't dripping at all and i had JUST changed it about 20 min before i left on friday from my house to my cottage. seeings as i have only drivin it out of 3rd gear 3 different weekends, then i guess i typicly beat the crap out of it... cuz yeah, i just got the thing and gotta see what its got, even though i saw people in the dunes doin alot worse to their banshees then i did (all chromed out so probably modded already though)

i got to the top of the hill, put it into neutral. then waited about a minute... once it was all screwed up, THEN i had to hold in the clutch so i could roll correctly to get out of the dunes and to my cottage.

now i have bigger problems, went on top of the FIRST hill of the day, stopped and when i was ready to take off again it was all fucked up... (hold in clutch and it would idle, but if i release clutch, even in neutral, it would stall out like i was in 5th gear BUT, the tires wouldn't even budge...) so now im guessing i broke a gear or SOMETHING in the tranny. now i need to do a total tear down and rebuild of the tranny. i just need some info on torque specs of bolts (good manual?) and good sites to get parts off it and i will be needing... like gaskets, and stuff like that. i finally got it home (tow strap), with it in neutral and me compressing the clutch, it would still act as if it was in gear so i BELEIVE i either broke a gear or welded something together. stopped it and checked the oil, it was fine... as i was screwing back on the dip stick, the JB weld pushed out, so i need THAT lil cap too... so yeah. im kinda in a bad way... oh yeah, the oil level was good... alil on the hot side but i don't think it was beyond the heat it should have been (not even steaming or smelling burnt) the worst part, i only beat the crap out of this thing 3 times... stupid previous owners.

umm... did you read what i did to my sol... i understand speed costs alil money thump thump HUH?! ITS NOT?! FUCK!!!!

we'll see how the shee is doin this weekend in silver, and if its all good... i might have to hit it up next weekend...

yogi bear camp ground is booked 2 years in advance for 4th of july week... and i BELEIVE some of the other places are too...

i'll be there, at my cottage... where are you all stayin?! maybe we can all meet up or something.

i'll be there, but im stayin at my cottage. im leaving on saturday from holland (should be there about 3ish, i beleive) im pretty much down town... where you stayin and what you drive, i'll personally have my flat black civic hatch, if you see it... stop by or flag me down or soemthing...

im excited about this shit!

my troubles are gunna the real names of parts and lil stuff like that... so yeah

and whats that plug/shaft thing do? cuz no engine lay out showed it...
