If a vice president takes over office how many years can he take over for and still run two more terms in office?

According to the 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, a succeeding vice-president who serves less than 2 years of a President's term is eligible to serve two full terms of his own, if elected. If the vice-president (or any successor) serves more than 2 years of an unexpired term, he/she is only eligible for one additional four-year term. Since this was not further addressed in the 25th Amendment (1967), the provisions remain in effect in the present day.

If the vice president serves out of the term of a President would those years count against the 8 year period he is allowed to serve as President?

According to the 22nd Amendment, any person who serves more than 2 years of a previous President's term of office may only be elected President once. The 22nd Amendment to the US Constitution was ratified in 1951 and (presumably) restricts eligibility of a President to a maximum of 10 years in office : up to 2 years following succession of a previous President, and 8 years in two full elected terms. Because of conflicting language in the 12th and 22nd Amendments, this might not preclude situations where a President could again serve following these prescribed terms.

The only US President to serve more than 8 years in the office was Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945), the 32nd President, who served from March 4, 1933 until his death on April 12, 1945. This was a term of 12 years and 39 days.
