Hi, just got a complete new kit with manifolds etc but no instructions.Have sussed most bits but where does this bracket go ???
Probably not what you want to hear but it’s the worst carb you can get for a type 4. Good luck with getting it to run reasonably well.
Even worn Solexs are better than a single progressive. Refurbished Solexs are far better. Or virtually any twin carb set up but avoid EMPI.
Mmm lets' see what happens ? Would prefer a answer to the question please rather than your negative opinion .
I never worked it out tbh. just don't fit it! If you need some instructions then let me know. I may have some!
It’s a fence that the bracket could be thrown over. There are a few on here with progressive carbs that no doubt think they are good, someone will be able to answer your question. I believe @Robert Thomas has one.
https://www.aircooled.net/making-weber-progressive-dfev-work-aircooled-vw-engine/ “Centermount Progressives NEED intake heat, and lots of it. This is why a progressive on a T4 WILL NOT WORK. It’s so bad and unfixable, we do not even sell the kits that are available for the Type 3 or Type 4 engines. The intake volume is too large, and there is no easy way to get the intake manifold and runners heated up. It will not work well, please do not ask, because the answer is “get dual carbs”. Nuff’ Said.”
They're almost as bad on type 1s. As above, the problem isn't stock Solexes, it's the hideous, long t-shaped manifold arrangements...
Okay point taken.I basically need carbsfor my bus.Not interested in performance just good reliable carbs.What about these ?https://www.dellorto.co.uk/shop/vw-...r-kits/type-4-weber-ict34-kit-cb-performance/
