This carburetor was built to be a stock factory replacement for OEM VW carburetors on Type 1 equipped cars from 1971 through 1979. It is jetted to fit the 1600 CC Type 1 engine in your beetle, bus, type 3, Karmann Ghia or VW Thing.
This is a name brand carburetor made by a company which has been in business for more than 40 years. This carburetor is flow tested before it is shipped to dealers across the nation to ensure quality performance and operation.
This carburetor is for DUAL PORT ENGINES and will NOT fit Single Port cars!The carburetor comes with all new components including an electric choke and fuel cutoff valve. It also comes with new studs and gasket to make it a complete bolt on for carbureted cars.
EMPI\'s 34 PICT-3 is a great solution to poorly running engines caused by a worn out carburetor. Factory PICT 34 carburetors can suffer from leaking throttle shaft bushings or gummed up vacuum and fuel passages. Also this can be a great remedy to an old and crispy VW fuel injection system gone haywire.
This carburetor can be run with either the factory vacuum advance distributor or a 009 style distributor.
Freshen your air-cooled VW engine this New Year with a new 34 PICT-3 Carburetor!
NOTE this ad is for one (1) 34 PICT-3 carburetor.
Installation:
***Please note: It is always wise to have a quality shop manual when working on your vehicle. Bentley VW repair manuals are hard to beat on this front.
Remove your old carburetor:
1. Remove your air cleaner.
2. Disconnect your throttle linkage by loosening the set screw on the barrel nut on your carburetor\'s throttle arm. Save the barrel nut for you new carburetor.
3. Remove your fuel line. We suggest leaving a rag beneath it to catch any fuel draining out. You may need to clamp it shut if you have a buggy with a fuel tank above the engine.
4. Remove any vacuum lines attached to the carburetor. We suggest taking a photo of them before removal to ease installation of your new carburetor.
5 Remove the two 13 mm nuts fastening the carburetor to its flange on the intake manifold. One will be right in front the other will be harder to access between the manifold and the fan shroud.
6. Once the carburetor is removed, clean the intake manifold flange of any old gasket material or debris.
Installing your new carburetor:
1. Install the two new studs in the base of the carburetor making sure that the longer section of threads is facing down and will pass through the intake manifold flange.
2. Install the gasket on the base of the carburetor by sliding it on the studs. Depending on your preference, you may want to use a thin bead of gasoline friendly RTV.
3. Torque the two carburetor retaining nuts down to 14 ft-lbs. For those doing it by hand the nuts should be tight but not Hulk-strength over-tightened.
4. Replace your fuel and vacuum lines referring to your photographs or a shop manual.
5. Replace your air cleaner.
Adjusting your new carburetor
1. There are two screws on the side of your carburetor above the electric choke. (See the image below)
2. Start your car and proceed first to adjust your idle speed. The larger screw on the carburetor is your idle speed adjustment. Shoot for 950 RPMs. Turning the screw in will reduce the idle, while backing it out will raise the idle.
3. Then adjust your fuel mixture. The smaller screw on your carburetor is your fuel mixture screw. While the engine is at idle, turn the screw in until the engine starts to sputter and die. Then back the screw out about a half turn, until the engine smooths out. Listen to the engine.
PLEASE NOTE: We do not recommend adjusting the screw on the carburetors fast idle cam. That adjustment is set from the factory and should not need to be touched!
