Where is the 1 spark plug on a 1969 vw bug?
All older beetles, 1 is rt front of motor nearest firewall, 2 is rt rear, 3 is left front and 4 is left rear. You really should buy the Bently manual.
What year is the vw 113 301 103 trans?
Between 1971 and 1979.
Volkswagens are built by German people, who do NOTHING at random. Let us, then, dissect this part number.
The first three digits are the model which this part was originally used on. In this case, the first 1 means "type 1"--sedans--and the "13" immediately after it stands for Super Beetle. (This is also how we know the part is from a 1970s-era car: Supers were introduced in 1971.)
The second group is the Part Class. The "3" is for transmission parts; 01 means the case. The whole transmission is part group 300.
The third group is just a one-up notation, but VW liked to use the same numbers for the same part on different cars--like a brake shoe on a Super and one on a Bus would have the same third group, even though bus brakes and bug brakes are different.
Why does the turn signal on my vw beetle flash rapidly?
One of you signal lamps is probably burned out. Turn on the signal and walk around the car, bet-ya you find one turn signals isn't lighting up.
Some times it is a bad connection at the bulb. The bulb sockets are cheaply made.

How do you replace the low beam headlight located on a 2003 VW Beetle?
Open the hood. Locate the seam between the nosepiece and the front fender (either side). Go up to the second fender mounting bolt and look down under the fender a few inches. (driver's side - take the battery distribution cover off & there is an access hole just above the negative battery terminal) You'll see a small push-button with hatch marks on it just in front of a lever with a finger recess on the underside. (I recommend finding it on the passenger side first. It is more evident on that side & makes it easier to find on the driver's side.) Push in the push-button w/hatch marks to release the lever & pull up on the lever - the lever is pretty stiff. When you lift the lever the headlamp assembley will slide forward slightly. Once you've topped out the lever, push on the headlight from behind with one hand and be prepared to catch the assembly with the free hand from the front. There is a black plastic cover on the back of the housing. Lift the tab to remove the cover. There is a metal spring clip that holds the bulbs in place. Undo this and the bulb will come out of the center (with the wire attached). You should be good to go now.

What is the oil capacity of a 1776cc vw beetle engine?
All the Type 1 Beetle engine blocks are the same capacity. About 2.5 quarts. All your changing is the cylinders and or crank so there is no expansion of the block. The only way to expand the capacity is to add an auxiliary tank on the bottom of the motor bolted to the oil intake screen cleaning panel which has your drain plug bolted to it. You can then gain another 1.5, 2.5 or more quarts. You can also gain another quart or so by installing an external oil filter.
How do you set the camshaft in on 1974 vw beetle?
You first need to make sure the crank is fitted with the seven pieces that must be attached to it...number 3 main bearing, a couple of gears and so on.
There are two gears you've got on the crank, correct? One is brass, the other is steel. The brass one is the distributor drive. Ignore it for now. Look at the cam gear (the steel one) from the end of the crank and you'll notice two teeth with dots pressed into their sides. Get your cam and look at its gear with the cam in your hand, and there's one tooth with a dot pressed into it. This one dot on the cam goes between the two dots on the crank. The easiest way to line these up is to put a little dot of paint on the teeth in question, so it's easier to see them.
Your engine case has two sides. One has eight long studs sticking out of it. Take this one and lay it on the table with the cylinder spigots pointing down and studs up. Put the main and cam bearings in the case, and lubricate them with assembly lube. Set the crank in its bearings and rotate it until you see the dots, then set the cam into this gear with the dot on the cam gear between the two dots on the crank gear. Then roll the cam down into place. Next, gently rotate the cam gear a few revolutions. If the one dot on the cam gear always winds up right between the two dots on the crank gear, the cam is in.
Can you clean your stock air filter on 1999 vw beetle?
It's best to just replace it. It won't cost much!
What is the average lifetime mileage of a Volkswagen beetle?
Technically a car can last forever if you have the money to keep repairing the parts that break and you don't total it. So what your really asking is about what mileage will the car begin to cost more than it's worth. The answer is after 120,000 miles. That's about when everything will slowly start to break one after the other. You'll lose break a window button. Then one of your window motors goes out. Then your coolant pump will break. Windshield wiper motor next. And so on. Volkswagon is a great car company. But at 120,000 miles roughly, the little things will start to break.
