How do you replace a starter on a 1979 volkswagen beetle Is there a bolt on top of the starter?
There is. The starter's on the right-hand side of the car. Look between the firewall and the fan shroud on that side, and you'll see a 17mm nut. That's the top nut holding the starter in, and you might need to clamp a pair of vise-grips to the head of the bolt to get the nut off. It is in possibly THE hardest place in the world to maneuver a pair of vise-grips into.

Where is the starter in a 1974 Super Beetle?
Stand on the right side of your car with the hood open, right next to the right rear fender, and look between the engine and the firewall. There's a 17mm nut back there; the bolt it's screwed onto is holding the starter in. The next question you have is, "how do I change it?" Very simple. You need a 17mm wrench, a 13mm wrench, probably a set of vise-grips, a jack and jackstands, and a new starter. You may also need a very small bolt--1/4" x 1 is fine. 1. Unhook the battery, jack the car up and put it on jackstands. 2. Use the 17mm wrench to attempt to loosen the nut I just told you about. Either it will loosen or it won't. If it won't, crawl under the car, find the starter and clamp the vise-grips to the top bolthead--it's on top of the starter in a REAL convenient place. Then crawl back out and remove the nut. 3. Crawl back under the car and remove the other 17mm nut, the bendix wire off the solenoid (it pulls off with your fingers) and the starter lead from the battery (13mm nut). Remove the starter with both hands, because if it conks you in the head it's really gonna hurt. 4. If you needed the vise-grips to get the top bolt out, take the top bolt (not the nut!) and the little bolt I told you to get to any welding shop. Stand in front of the guy with the most dirt under his fingernails, hold the starter bolt in one hand sticking straight up and down, lay the little bolt on the big bolthead with its head hanging over the side, and tell the guy "this is the starter bolt out of a Volkswagen, can you weld these two bolts together like this?" Five minutes later he'll be done. The intent of this second bolt is to hit the starter. When it does, the bolt will turn no farther, and you won't need vise-grips ever again. Pay him, thank him nicely and return home. 5. As they say in the books, "installation is the reverse of removal."

71 VW bug do they have heaters?
The only heat you have comes from the engine, the fan shroud pushes air through the hoses coming off of it, down into the heater boxes, they pick their heat from the cylinder heads and piston jugs, the air from the fan then pushes it through the heater boxes, through the heater channels, and up to the front the car where it defrosts your front window, also the heat will come out from under the rear seat through the flapper boxes, and also in the front at the door frame.
hope that helps.
How does the speedo work on 69 vw beetle?
All the beetles are manual via a cable from the back of the speedo meter and connected to the left front wheel. Later model bugs had two piece cables.
How do you spray wiper fluid on a 1971 VW Super Beetle?
There should be an air hose coming from the spare tire filler nozzle to a plastic tank for the fluid on the right side of the wheel well in the boot. The air from the spare charges the tank. Pushing or pulling the wiper lever then pumps the fluid onto the windshield.
The spare tire is usually over pressurized to around 40 psi to make up for the average usage and still have enough air left in the tire for use as a spare. At least in theory.
Where is the VIN on a 2000 VW beetle 2.0?
On the drivers side dash. You can see it thru the windshield.
Where do you add oil to VW super beetle?
Look at your engine. You will see the fan belt. The top pulley is hooked to the alternator. The stand the alternator is strapped to has a tube coming out of it at a 45-degree angle toward the left side of the car, and there's a cap on the tube. (If you have an Official Volkswagen Cap, there's a hose going between this cap and the air cleaner...that hose is a smog control device called a crankcase ventilation hose, so don't throw it away.) Unscrew the cap; that's where the oil goes.
Yes, what is the question regarding the choke? Look on the right side of the carb, it is a round ceramic element with a wire going to it...
What is the stock engine in a 74 vw standard beetle?

How do you bypass the voltage regulator on a 1974 super beetle?
You can't. German engineers have been improving the design of these vehicles since their conception in 1939, that regulator is there for a reason and there is a risk of electrical fire by bypassing it.
