Gotta Do a clutch etc etc

[libbydiesel]

New Luk flywheel would probably be fine also. 

[monst]

GTK..... Thanks!....

   I may go that route.......

   In the event I do.........      What I saw for "compatibility".....
               It said,,,,,,,,(requirements being)

Single Alignment Dowel Pin 7.4x1.75mm -
Also Use 027 198 141E Clutch Kit Or 027 141 026C Plate; Engine: VIN: K; Transmission: Manualless   
Single Alignment Dowel Pin 7.4x1.75mm -
Also Use 027 198 141E Clutch Kit Or 027 141 026C Plate; Engine: VIN: A; Transmission: Manualless
                             (have to research the kit #.... and why it makes that suggestion....)))
Just wondering     If anyone knows   Engine: VIN K
                                    AND           Engine  VIN A

                         What bit position are they lookin at for   VIN K   and VIN A......

                 I don't have my VIN in front of me....... I guess... perhaps I might be able to deduce... something if I did....
                                      VIN K and VIN A ...  (dont' have anythin to do with the plant which the wheels were manufactured??))

        I will have to look deeper if I am to purchase a new one..........
             (ebay ones are cheaper but, I believe are without the dowel pins)
                        The pins on ebay are  rather expensive..............

               Is it ok to reuse dowel pins?


                        When the old one gets resurfaced.........
 
                     what is the idea there?     reuse pins........ install new pins?  thanks......

[libbydiesel]

I don't know about the VIN values.

It is fine to reuse the dowel pins. 

[monst]

Gtk  thanks....

 
            I got another place to go with it on Mon....


Seems to think he can cut it.....     He has been in the bus... for  long time...

So I will see what his vibe is..........


       And explain.... dowel pins are to be removed.... both surfaces are to be machined.....

Monst

[fatmobile]

 Yeah, the dowels come out pretty easy with vice grips
 tap right back in.
 LUK is good quality.
 Not sure I'd name my auto parts company LUK ,...
 or FAG for that matter, ha.

[monst]

GTK...

Yeah, dropped it off somewhere... he will look at it and let me know a price tomorrow...
If it is ridiculous....  Those  Luk's...  where like 60 bucks......
I will just do that....
     (yeah have to watch out when choosing an Acronym as the name of your company )
                      (Luk......  to close to Puke...)
   I have to start collecting all my new parts........

       Do you know where to get the best prices online....
I guess that is where I will get my stuff...... or at least use that as my reference...  and buy local........

 
  STUFF


         

• Clutch kit

   (Is there an everthing kit anymore??)  you know with the bolts and maybe even the pushrod seal and bush

• rear seal
• input seal
• shifter seal
• transaxle drive flange seals
• trans axle mount (hydraulic -- mine is fried)
• valve cover gasket....
• CAN YOU THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE???  WHAT MIGHT I BE MISSING???

                      If you can make recommendations  much appreciated..... 
                            hypertext links  are cool! to the items.... if possible
                             or part numbers..............

     Also   yeah,, I want to re-pack the inner cv joints......
                           To what detail  (should/ can I get away with)...  doing this.......


THanks, MOnst

Make sure you center the clutch disc.
If you dont have the centering tool.
You can use vernier calipers to center it. Or something like that to center it.
Then tighten the flywheel to the pressure plate, have it just snug enough that you can move the disc around a bit.

[fatmobile]

Runnin on LUK, ha.

 Most people don't think to center the disc the push rod presses against.
 I run a bic pen around the outside.
 In the space between the disc and pressure plate.

 Parts places for the 1.6 stuff.
 Lately I've been using rock auto or autohaus.
 Or the local NAPA.
 Sometime oreilly. 

[monst]

GTK, Thanks!


  Yeah, Bought somewhere else...
Sorta got strung along.....  That is when I just came out and said...  Will it be more than a Franklin to cut the flywheel?

I even told him that the guy with a jig set up specifically for that flywheel wanted 150. His eyes lit up when I said I can get a new one for 60 samolians.......

Anyway,   I have to collect parts still, been sidetracked with other crazy projects........

Can anyone chime in the list above regarding parts?

thanks, Monst

Push rod bushing:  020311107C
Push rod seal:  020311108A
Clutch kit:  Sachs K0028-03 (that's the last one I got for my '79 rabbit - I believe it would be the same for you but confirm before ordering)
Trans end cap:  020141073A
Pressure plate to Crank bolts:  N90206103

[fatmobile]

 A '79 Rabbit might have the 180mm clutch instead of the 200mm behind the later 1.6D.

[monst]

Thanks!

  Be ordering stuff sometime this week....

Buying a new FlyWheel I will.......   Second place didn't work out.....

  Vin: K   and Vin:A   might have to do with the 8 digit....
  which is this.....
                   4th – 8th Character – The next five characters tell you all about vehicle itself. The characters vary between automakers, but for the most part, the letters and numbers include information about the body style, engine type, model, series and more.

                 I am wondering

          I ran a compatibility  check for the flywheel   below is what the results are.....

    Josephina is a 1991 Vw Diesel jetta 1.6l naturally aspirated...

thanks, MOnst

[fatmobile]

 I don't know the part numbers.
 Just 200mm and the smaller center splines than the 16V trany mainshaft used.

[monst]

Thanks!...
    Yeah, my time(which is spread of many many catastrophes all the time)
just passes by this set of wheels up on jack stands in the garage......
Soon I will delve back in......
            So I measure the clutch.... as you are saying  200mm & smaller splines......
