I'm looking to change my Pierburg carb for a Weber,couple of years ago we did the same for my bro's Scirroco 1.8.I've seen them in the past for the T25 1.9 watercooled but can't seem to find one now!is it the same as the Scirroco?golf.Really grateful if anyone knows and or where i can buy new??

I've just ordered a pair of twin dual 40 Dellortos. Looking to run 34mm Venturis and 140 main jets.

Ordered from Alfa1750 who trades on Ebay from Italy. Told him what size engine, and he sets them up and balances them for you on a factory original syncrometer - excellent!! Ordered manifolds, linkages and small pancake filters from Jim Calvert at Stateside Tuning

I've heard not to be tempted to put Webers on a T3 - less smooth apparently but then I'm not that technically minded!!

Or try this link for some info

Thanks for the info,was going for a weber purely for simplicity and reliability.Going to remove and clean the Pierburg next couple of days and see where that gets me,thats the relatively easy bit and fingers crossed.Just done 700 miles no probs,get home from holiday and refuses to drive.

Was looking for the same a few weeks ago. managed to find a good pierburg in the end. Weber are still manufacturing I believe and stocks are currently unavailable for the t25 but should be available by end september (based on info from Gower and lee and a few other weber dealers in the UK) hope this helps. Got an old pierburg your welcome to have for spares if needed. It's a bit of a homemade special but your welcome to it if your stuck for bits.

personally i cant see how he can balance em or jet em (properly) off the engine!!! each motor is different.
i put dual twin choke dells on my bus. you will need to get it to a rolling road the jets can then be tweaked to get the max power available
www.raceshack.co.uk did my bus
good luck, these sound awesome when fitted!!!!
