Tasks on VW 1302




Cloudy and occasional rain as today's climate is, I'll exert myself in tasks today on VW 1302 Super Beetle. Because I was obliged to stop working on rear wheel cylinder, the reason was lack of special tool, 36mm larger wrench loosening hub center bolt. Today I'm prepared for accessing next steps, remembering former tasks on EP82 TOYOTA Starlet 2 years ago, rear wheel cylinders had been replaced into 3/4' from 11/16' to enforce rear brake power balancing replaced frontal disk rotors into GT model's ones. So now I'm keeping those replaced 11/16' cylinder, the value of diameter is the same as VW's ones, matching test is necessary.
Photos and descriptions later:
After loosening of hub nut the inside construction of stuck rear brake system appeared. Rusty but brake shoe is not poisoned by brake fluid. Back plate inner side photo shows considerable fluid pilling historically. Round sticked banish inside of wheel cylinder was cleaned thoroughly by means of small piece of wood and rucker thinner.
In order to prevent pilling from the tip of oil pressure line after disconnecting, small wooden tip is plugged utilizing disposable Japanese chopstick sharpened with automatic pencile sharpener.
