Nice job CT. Taking your time taking it apart and studying it. It’s smart of you to not attempt to dismantle something you’re not familiar with and ask questions to people who might know the proper way of doing things. I saw somebody mentioned about reaching out to Mustie1. Great thing to do. He knows quite a bit about VW’s and their carburetors. Another good idea would be like some people said and get some of those magnetic pans for the nut and bolts. I also use small plastic Tupperware cups to put things like choke parts and bolts in one container. Another one with the accelerator diaphragm, spring, cover, and bolts. Another one for the accelerator rod, spring, 2 small washers and the tiny cotter pin. This way you have organization knowing where everything specifically came from, you’re not missing anything, and you know where it goes upon reassembly. Heat up the ultrasonic cleaner, and put the carburetor housing in it to get them thoroughly clean now on the inside. Get all of the gaskets, and stuff, and have some fun putting it back together. We all look forward to nice new looking rebuilt carburetor video!! Good luck!

[@CTmoog]

Thank you sir! I appreciate all the advice! I'm going to pick up some if those this weekend! I need to stick them all over the shop! =) Stay tuned my friend!

[@lucvamp13]

Hello CT, the carburetor is in a very good condition for his years. Very good work.

[@CTmoog]

Hey Lucy! Yes it looks pretty good! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@ANDRE-VW]

Hello CT, greatings from Brazil. I've a 65 Brazilian Bus (the engine is a 1200cc 6V with 36hp) and the original carb It is a Solex 28PCI. There are many differences between 28PCIT and 28PCI. Great job with the carb cleaning using the ultrassonic bath.

[@ianallen2]

The carb is a lot cleaner than I was expecting. As you started to strip it, I was thinking it was going to be thick varnish inside from decades old petrol. You are so lucky.

[@CTmoog]

Hey Ian, yes, I know I thought it would be worse too! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@papaj316]

CT you're amazing. I know I would get it back together again and have Parts left over. Can't wait for the next one

[@CTmoog]

Thanks Jimmy! Thanks man! I might have some parts left over too! =) Stay tuned!

[@manelk8]

The beauty of video...just rewind when reassembling!

[@CTmoog]

TRUE!!! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@Semtropia123]

Its 4 in the night where i live wanted to go to sleep but cant resist watching this :)

[@CTmoog]

You might be dreaming! =)

[@scottsommers552]

CT, nice work again man. Grab some of those magnet bowls. You have on hanging on your file cabinet. All those small parts suck when they hit the ground. Dont know if you have it already, but the idiota guide to keeping your volkswagon alive is awsome for stuff like this. Keep it up man. One more thing off the check list.

[@CTmoog]

Thanks Scott! Yes, I have 3 of them. Two of them are right on the table in front of me when I was doing this.... Oh well. Sometimes you "can't see the forest for the trees"! That's a great book! I have it. I need to use it! =) Stay tuned!

[@bmh67wa]

I think you would appreciate a magnetic parts tray when working on things with a lot of small screws and parts like carburetors. Harbor Freight has them dirt cheap and they are a life saver.

[@CTmoog]

Good advice man! Those are awesome! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@notajp]

I’ve got probably four of those things now. Got another one last weekend on sale for $3. Lots of times they have them free with a coupon. Use them all the time.

[@CTmoog]

Yes, I'm going to pick up some more this weekend!

[@syedrashadishaq7121]

Mostly parsts and screw are used in carborator is alimunium or brass so i think no nees of maganet tray

[@Aikaramba12]

bmh67wa a lot of these parts are not magnetic xD

[@chuckhaynes6458]

You are done with disassembly. It might be helpful if you were to stop by Horrible Fright and pick up a couple few of those handy magnetic bowls for screws etc. I think the 2 gaskets on the needle and seat was to lower the float level.

[@CTmoog]

Hey Chuck! Good advice man! Thank you! Stay tuned! =) HAHA Horrible Fright!!! =)

[@ytdevapi]

The little brass curved pipe is the outlet of the accelerator pump. From "Rob and Dave's Aircooled Page" they state: "When you open the throttle, the airflow increases immediately but the fuel (being more dense than air) takes a moment to catch up with the increased airflow. This would result in a lean mixture for a few moments (the car would hesitate), so the carburetor has an accelerator pump built into the side of it which supplies a shot of fuel to ensure smooth acceleration. The accelerator pump connected by a linkage to the accelerator; when acceleration is required, the pump squirts a spray of fuel directly into the throat of the carburetor to momentarily increase the fuel-to-air concentration." Once you reassemble the carb, and fill the bowl up, you should be able to pull on the throttle arm and see a small squirt of fuel into the center of the carb throat. I would not try and remove the small pipe, as it's only pressed fit into the carb body and could be dangerous if it was to work it's way loose when driving.

[@CTmoog]

Thanks Brad! Thats good info! Thank you! Stay tuned my friend! =)

[@VitosFix]

Great info! Awesome video!

[@RodrigoMoschetto]

Very well! Survived well in time. It is in great condition !! Further cleaning, new repairs, some sesame toast and brandy hot milk solve \o/

[@CTmoog]

I like the way you think! Sounds good to me! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@tonypeters8298]

For it's age, that carb is amazingly clean. Brave man CT, those things are far too fiddly for me! Cheers Tony from down under.

[@CTmoog]

Hey Tony! Yes, it's in good shape! Lots of small parts! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@claudineiflorentino]

Legal, restauração do carburador da velha kombi.

[@CTmoog]

Yes! Thank you! Stay tuned my friend! =)

[@claudineiflorentino]

@@CTmoog Yes, certainly dear friend

[@busman5429]

I know it fun to do things for the 1st time and learning all you can, but with what you have invested already with Rusty plus the little dollars for a new pict 28 or 30; I would get a new carb. and use this as a back-up parts like the guys on VWLife. The one golden rule my son and I have with the VW hobby do all the work ourself. Yes have fun rebuild it test it on the motor then use it as a back-up. Mike F recommended a PICT 30 sold by CarCraft I procured one and put it on my stock 1600 it runs great.

[@CTmoog]

Hey Dan! Good point sir! Yes, it would be nice to have a spare just in case! I might do that! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@paulrawcliffe8057]

Hi CT I'm Still Enjoying Your Videos. I can't wait to see and hear Rusty going again. Regarding the accelerator rod /shaft with the butterfly's on. check it for play if there's none or very little then leave it on. However if there's to much play then remove it and re-bush it. I hope hope that helps you. Still your loyal Fam from Perth Western Australia 🇦🇺 Kind regards Paul Rawcliffe.

[@CTmoog]

Hey Paul! That is good to know man! I will take a closer look at it this weekend. THANK YOU! Stay tuned my friend! =)

[@geoffreyjones2000]

I believe that you have removed enough, the squirter on top is a .004 press fit and is easily removed with a twist, but must be very secure when re installed. Use compressed air every passage. She looks very low miles and original... nice carby tag

[@CTmoog]

Thanks for the advice sir! Good to know! I will do that! Thank you! =)

[@robertoramirez5050]

I can't avoid to felt frightened watching you disasembling this carburetor because in my experience I know some of these parts were adjusted permamently in factory, buy I'm sure that you know what you're doing. It is very interesting the dedication that you put in your work and I wonder what happen with the rest of the engine? Very good video, congratulations.

[@burningbananas70]

The brass piece that looks like a faucet should just pull out. The thing really to check is the brass pipe gas inlet.. It's press fitted and has been known to wiggle out and start fires. I think Mike F did a video about how these gas inlet pipes get threaded into the card to avoid failure. Good video👍🏻

[@CTmoog]

Thanks man! Good advice! I appreciate that! Stay tuned! =)

[@kingtrax5759]

That thing was filthy. Soaking it in that purple power with it closed like that only got the open dirt off.

[@CTmoog]

Yes, it was pretty nasty! Stay tuned! =)

[@malefecent9728]

Love the logo!

[@CTmoog]

THANK YOU!!! =)

[@gamealive6]

i can't wait for next video

[@djambrosia]

Butterfly screws are usually peened for safety, so you should replace them if removed. Unless there is play in the shaft I would just leave it intact. Also read this guide. www.vw-resource.com/34pict3.html

[@DerekSan_Arg]

Nice job man keep going!!

[@CTmoog]

Thanks Derek!

[@luigipiccolo2542]

Se posso darti un consiglio: le parti in alluminio lavale con la CREOLINA, dopo averle sgrassare.

[@GettingNervous]

The carb looks nice and clean. So the only thing to do is cleaning the carb in the ultrasonic cleaner, use compressed air for cleaning and take new gaskets and a new diaphragm for the accelerator pump. I don´t think it´s necessary to disassemble the throttle valve.

[@CTmoog]

Yes sir! Should be pretty straight forward. I agree. I think the throttle valve is fine. Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@thomasotto7448]

Again😁 Cooles video🤘👍

[@CTmoog]

Awesome man! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@motorfreaknew]

awesome!

[@CTmoog]

YES!!! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@Aikaramba12]

Part Two?

[@fabrizioolmeda1747]

Ciao per rimontare il carburatore per me sarebbe impossibile rimontare, tu lo rimonti con uno schema, è facile trovare ho bisogna acquistare?

[@bpaulos5]

I have a beetle 1200 cc 1962 solex 28 pitc . I am looking a replacement carburetor and cant find here in Canada. If you have it in your collection which if it is for sale let me know please. Thank you

[@tofinh]

The screws holding the butterfly valves are staked in, don't remove them if you can avoid it. You don't want loose screws falling down the carburetor.

[@CTmoog]

Good advice man! Thank you! I'm not going to mess with them. They seem to be working. Stay tuned! =)

[@Mikefngarage]

weird that it still has the tag those are usually gone.

[@pacocaddy3097]

👍 😀 Super 👌

[@CTmoog]

Thanks Paco!!! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@fabrizioolmeda1747]

bel lavoro ora un passaggio nella vasca microonde, sarei curioso assistere al rimontaggio!!

[@CTmoog]

Yes, it tuned out pretty good! Thank you! Stay tuned! =)

[@smiffy1071]

Hi matt, turn on your ultra sonic cleaner and warm it up for 20 mins. While that is happening, watch one of the many videos on mustie1 about cleaning carbs. Don’t bother removing the choke plate, but yes you can remove the accelerator pump nozzle. It twists out. Did the steering wheel trick work? You will need to use a bit of force mind you...

[@CTmoog]

Good idea sir! I will do that! No, I didn't mess around with the steering wheel again. I'll try it this weekend. Stay tuned! =)

[@malefecent9728]

🖤

[@CTmoog]

THANK YOU!!! =)

[@4x4loz97]

Where is part 2??

[@overcloth]

I was hoping Rusty's key was hiding inside the carb.

[@CTmoog]

HAHA! Yes, they would have been pretty cool! =)

[@vwmadness1591]

Should of taken apart before ultrasonic cleaning it. Could of make life alot easier. I use just water and dish soap in mine and it doesn't discolor the metal

[@CTmoog]

Good tip. Thanks man!

[@okjoe5561]

You may want to round off the corners of those metal tables before you lose a kidney.

[@CTmoog]

Hey Joe! Good idea! =) Thank you! Stay tuned my friend! =)

[@syedrashadishaq7121]

I think you can clean this carborator with the help of hot thinner

[@xavierjacques73]

Hehe Hehe Intro was doubly awezommme

[@CTmoog]

Thank you sir! =)

[@timwhite8878]

Your carb is very clean 2 flap on top and bottom you do not remove them.just clean it.

[@CTmoog]

Thanks Tim! Good advice man! Stay tuned! =)

[@andrewcampbell1587]

Call mustie1 to demonstrate how to clean a pict 28 carb

[@CTmoog]

Hey Andrew! Good idea! Thank you! Stay tuned my friend! =)

Szkoda, że nie można liczyć w tym programie na jakieś fajne efekty. Tylko pokazywaniem przez 20min jak rozkrecasz gaźnik. W Polsce każdy mechanik garażowy by jego cała regenerację zamknął w 5min filmiku.

[@CTmoog]

That's nice. You must have really smart people there. Have a great day! =)

[@redsorgum]

Are you sure this carb is from the van? I don’t see any rust on it. If there’s no rust, I don’t trust.

[@CTmoog]

HAHA! You might be on to something there! =) Thank you! Stay tuned my friend! =)
