34 Pict-3 Carburetor For VW Beetles Super Beetles 1971-1979 Dual Port 1600cc Air Cooled Type 12V Engine Electric Choke Volkswagen Bug Bus Thing Karmann Ghia Squareback Transporter #113129031K

It cured my idle circuit problem of rough/no idle and the flat spot when accelerating. I ordered it from Amazon last night at 6 PM and they delivered it this morning at 4 AM. I inspected inside the bowl and everything was good to go. I left the 127 main jet and the 55 idle jet as received and did not change to the extra 137 main and 60 mm idle jets. I fine tuned the idle air/fuel mixture (smaller screw on driver side of carb) and then set the idle at 900 RPM using the bigger screw. Then I also set the choke/idle screw to match the RPM I had set before using the bigger screw on the driver side. Then I set the SVDA distributor timing at 30 degrees at 3000 RPM with the vacuum advance disconnected (with a piece of tape over the end of the port on the card to prevent a vacumn leak). After timing, I removed the tape and connected the vacumn advance hose to the carb vacumn port. Runs great now!

This carburetor works as well as the original Rolex. After installing it I was easily able to set the mixture and RPM. My VW Beetle now runs like new. I do recommend you replace the idle and mixture jets that are installed with the included richer jets, as the installed jets are too lean. I consider this carb to be a great value.

I bought this to replace the carburetor in one of my beach buggies. I had to drill it out because it went on a 1915 not a 1600 but it still fit well and everything works well.

My old carb on my 1600 was running ok but I wanted to rebuild it and this thing was almost the same price. I see and have heard a lot of folks throw these on without adjustment. Well mine got 4 stars because it was pretty far out of adjustment. Oh it ran alright, but I had to turn in the choke idle adjustment to get it to idle which these are not designed for that. General internet lore all over say 2.5 on both side screws on the left side after you lightly bottom them out, then fine tune from there. My bottom smaller screw was like 1 turn out and my big boy screw was 2. Once at 2.5 each I could back off the choke idle adjustment on the top of the back of the carb, which most people probable use to make it idle. That thing is only supposed to touch and then 1/4 of a turn after the car is completely warmed up. Mine now idles at 850, even with the base settings of 2.5. Now mine is running a little warm which was the same as the old carb, which looks like one of these that's 10 years old. This is where crucial information is missing and I am going to provided, with pictures! It has a 127 main/55 idle installed just like my other carb. It comes with an extra 137/60 jets. The 60 ran awful and with the 127 my car was running hot, 137/55 runs pretty good but is really rich, the temps better but still 229 ish. Now I came to realize in all this that the top down on the vert ,the rain guard, combined with chrome tins was a losing battle. Took off the rain guard and popped the trunk, temps came way down at around 205. So I ordered solex/mukini jets for 10 bucks and I am going to run a 130 now. Probably what it should have came with as an extra as 127 to 137 is a lot. From what I have read in the charts online California came with 127 back in the day which is probably a tad lean for emissions. Do your own research, it is amazing I drove one of these as a kid, pre internet, and all the things I didn't know that I am learning!

This carb was literally plug and play, zero adjustment was necessary. My carb was prolly original to the 70' Bug and was just worn out. I did not want to rebuild it so when I seen this one I found I didn't have to. For the price I wasn't expecting too much but boy was I wrong. This is a quality product and I am very happy with it. I installed it on my stock 1600 cranked it over for a few seconds, hit the throttle a couple of times and it not only fired right off but it also idled with out issue... Very happy and defiantly recommend this carb...

Fit and worked perfectly. Just needed to tweak the idle. Highly recommend.

My 1600cc vw engine started first time after installation.

Put this on a recently rebuilt 1600DP in my 65 Bus. Bolted right on and sets correctly. My Bus runs really really good now.
