Weber or Pierberg 2e2 for Scirocco

[corrado_sunderland 0]

Well we could not find a clean Rado so ended up with a little run around Scirocco. Now as usual the carb is missing bits and not running right so i need a new one.

 

If anyone has one lying around please let me know :)

I'd go for a Webber carburettor as the original Pierberg ones were pants, I had one on my 1.8 Scirocco Scarla, it had the wax stat type auto choke on it, which are known to wear out,

I had to put at least 2 on mine.

Plus they have that large green ball type vacuum chamber that is bolted to the bulkhead,

they can cause problems as well over time.

 

Also check the thick rubber base mount,

as they crack and cause rough runing.

 

If you do fit a Webber carburettor you'll have to fit a manual choke cable, normally fits into dash on drivers side just left of steering wheel.
