That looks like an industrial engine part number

That was my thought, unless I had just discovered an new line of VWs...the rare and ellusive Bug Bus designed by Ghia...?... It fits a 1500 manifold...anyone else ever seen one??? There is NOTHING in the Gallery or the forum (or any hits on the web that I found...) It think I am going to rty and fit it on my 55 vert rat ride in the making's 36er, but I will need a slightly larger flange (30-1 to DP manifold redrilled might work..?) Any ideas out there... Also there is a really deep accelerator pump diaphram (the housing is about 4to5 times as deep as usual and has six screws instead of the ususal 4, looks to have a huge spacer, but I have not opened her up yet, did not want to glass bead it if it was a "rare part" I could always knuck under and buy 30#s of walnut shells...

The set of Okrasa 32 PB1s I've got have the same "6 screws " set up. The rebuild kit for those in 32 and 40s all had "B" letters . Bet you want the name of the person that has the parts ? Laughing

(I don't have the name or number either) I'll see if I can track him down. Lloyd

OK I tracked down the guy who gave away the the carb in question , and looked at the case that had that carb on it, it was on a F series case. More of the story : It was under the bushes at his older friends house who has been into VWs a long time but is getting older and is throwning things away. Needless to say I gave him my name/number for more information and that I'd like to go visit and talk to him Smile

and call me before he gets rid of anything else... OH IF you end up using/selling the carb the "young man" who gave it away could use help to get his Beetle running again. His engine dropped a valve on #3 cylinder,He is looking for used parts to get it going. Walleys engine shop says the head is rebuildable, he is looking for a used piston & cylinder for his "2000" engine. Lloyd

I just removed one of these from a 36hp engine. It doesn't fit the 36hp manifold though so the installer widened the mounting holes so it would fit. (Weird) Engine ran fine with it, better after I adjusted it correctly.

Part # on mine is 126129021K.

From reading I think it's originally for a 1500 or 1600 industrial engine?

SOLEX 32 PCI for sale?
My 1959 Lloyd Alexander has an old carb - full of holes, needs to be replaced.

Are any other SOLEX 32-series carbs interchangeable with mine?

I have a pair of Solex 32PCIs that I bought with a pile of old parts. They are attached to dual-port manifolds marked "Riechert Essen". I was hoping someone here could tell me what car the carbs originally came from.

I had been told that industrial engine carbs can't be made to run on a car engine???

German cars, most likely.

I ran a Mobile Dimension Sawmill for years. It was powered by a modified VW engine, and came originally with a 32 pci. These mills are still being made, so these carbs can probably be bought new somewhere.

This Solex was used as a vw stationary engine... that ran at a certain speed ...The old Bmw 700 car uses a similar type carb but had an extra fuel tube from the diaphragm side .. these were 34mm in venturi size they had an adapter to step up to the 40mm intake manifold hole. I run this carb on my steyr puch 750cc engine... It runs well from idle to full throttle.. with no stumble flat spot anywhere. do not attempt to just yank the top off to disassemble it...IF you do you will break off the casting taps to align the top these get corroded around the gasket after many years sitting around.. leave the carb in fuel oil for a few days.. then carefully pry off the top evenly..leo
