Hey Guys!
Wondering if anyone can help or point me in the right direction, I have a 1990 MK2 golf 1.3 that has been sat for 10 years, managed to get it started after doing a service on it, every time I get it started and give it some acceleration it bogs down and cuts out, ive been told it would be easier just to replace it with a Weber card instead as it will have less issues, any ideas what one I need exactly, if anyone can help it would be appreciated
Hi. I'm less familiar with the carb in the 1.3l, but there are some useful videos on how to rebuild the stock carb, and there are gaskets sets available. Its a lot simpler than the one in the 1.6! If its sat for 10 years, I would expect the carb to be full of crap, so its worth at least taking the top off it, and giving it a good clean with carb cleaner and blasting through all the passages with compressed air. If you dont have a compressor, just buy an aerosol of compressed air off amazon.
