New Super Beetle Owner

Postby Tobywan » Sat Jan 15, 2011 5:57 pm

I'm a newbe to the vintage bug world sorta. Bought a 72 Super Beetle a couple weeks ago, it's the second bug I have owned in 42 years(69 in 72). Iv'e forgotten anything I may have learned in the 18 months I owned the 69. Both the brakes and the clutch have taken a dive on me in just a few days here. I just have 3 questoins for now. Where is the master cylinder for the brakes? Can someone give me quick run down on how to adjust the clutch? What repair manual and on line resources would you recomend as I begin my journey of restoration. Well I guess I really have 4 questions. I traced the window washer system to the steering wheel and either have a blockage there or the switch/valve mechanism is faulty, any input on that would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hello;

Your decision was very good or should i say great!. Why? Because it was an Economy car produced by the German auto Maker (VW) from 1938 until 2003. It has an Air Cooled, Rear Engined and Rear Wheel Drive Configuration.It became the World Wide Longest-Running and most manufactured automobile of Single Design Platform.
