Delving into the “Running of the VW”
Well I’ve done the exciting exterior stuff.. windows with new rubber.. lights reinstalled…
Now I’ve got to make this bugger run! The engine is so dark and dingy… aka dirty. I started with a before pic:
I disconnected the fuel lines that were leaking and varnish-coated… yes all of them – then plugged the metal line. First off I removed the H30/31 Pict carb and I’m going to clean that first… the jets are plugged and it’s really dirty. That’s my starting point. I have the same carb on my ’71 driver that has a ’68 bug engine in it but the “new” carb has this attachment on the front – I’ll need to figure out what that’s about.
