Remove the 10 mm nuts from the round drain plate at the bottom of the Air Cooled VW engine. While you're pulling the nuts, the drain plate will start to leak, so have a pan under it. After the plate is removed, gently work out the oil screen. Wash the screen and the drain plate. You'll need two (2) drain plate gaskets. Put a gasket on, then put the screen on, then another gasket and finally the drain plate. Be careful to NOT overtighten the 10 mm nuts. Many VW shops will adjust the valves every SECOND time you change the oil. You relly need to keep the valves adjusted properly so that the valves don't burn.

How often should you change the oil on a 1975 vw bug?
On this year, I would recommend you stick with the older 3,000 mile oil change unless you use synthetic oil and in that case every 5,000 miles.

Can you change oil filter after changing oil to a 1970 Volkswagen bug?
As far as I remember from my old V Dub days is there wasn't an oil filter but a screen located at the drainplug. Therefore you would lose your oil by removing it. If it has an after market filter you should be able to change it with little spillage.

Why would your 72 VW bug stall when you slow down?
The timing is too retarded. It runs okay when you're in the gas, right? When you step on the gas in a car, the timing advances. When you let off, it retards again. There's a range of timing the car will run in, and when you get out of the gas the car falls out of that range. Result: stall, just like you described. All you really need is a tune-up. Also, be sure and keep up on the valve adjustment as the Beetles are real sensitive to timing if not kept up on. It makes a big difference sometimes. Good call on the valves...every three months, every Bug owner needs to take a Saturday morning and set the valves and timing, clean the plugs (although I never do that--Bosch Super plugs are inexpensive enough that I just replace them), set the idle, set the dwell on the points, and change the oil. (Oil change interval on a Bug without an oil filter retrofit is 1500. So it's oil change - full Saturday morning service - oil change...) If you don't want to do the dwell adjustment, which is a grade-A pain, change to a Pertronix Ignitor points eliminator.
