I constantly see people wanting to know if the 1.9 carb on these transporters can be refurbed, well heres a guy who does it for some beer money..

Well in the 17 years hes been restoring VW's he hasnt learnt that the pierburg was only ever fitted to the 1.9....... never to a 2.1 or even a 2.4???? not in a transporter..... maybe in early LT's.......

Fritz,you spend £135 on beer? is that a week or a month :lol:

Steve at gasure will refurb yours for £88.13

Seems a better bet to me :wink:

(Although I haven't had my carb refurbed by either.)

Thanks Migs for your contribution to this informative thread, but I think you will find Gasure tend to service 'Aircooled' carbs rather than the ones fitted to the 1.9 Wasserboxer.
