The choke flap position is adjusted by turning the autochoke housing.
Three screws on the housing allow flap position to be moved quite significantly
The flap does not close fully and it lies at an angle, giving the impression it's too big
This shows the range of movement

Re: vw t25 carburetor tuning
No, don't mess with it at all. Its a bimetallic spring. It simply tightens up or uncoils slightly, according to temperature. The easiest way to set it correctly is to locate the end of the spring on the choke flap lug and with engine cold (early morning best) turn choke until flap just shuts then tighten screws enough so it doesn't move.
With engine hot, check choke flap is fully open. In normal operation the choke coil will open flap in about one to two minutes.

Re: vw t25 carburetor tuning
does the choke pull down work?
i.e. does it open the choke flap when you increase the revs?
