Yeah, gotta throw in my support for Tim, just got around to installing the 34-3 carb he rebushed and rebuilt for me about a month ago. Looked spectacular and ran great right out of the box. Smooth transaction, quick turnaround, great communication. Will definitely use Volksbitz in the future, highly recommended.
Thanks Tim

Ordered a rebuilt carb for my Ghia which had the wrong carb (30Pict instead of 34Pict). Told Tim I would only be in town for one week and that I was worried about the delivery time. He reassured me, asked me exactly what model my car was and got me the correct one right away. Asked if he could locate a throttle positioner too as mine was missing. He added it, no problem.

Carb arrived a few days later. Right now it's sitting on a shelf in the living room, it's a piece of art! Maybe I'll order another one... to put in the car!

Email communication was good and fast, great work. Highly recommended!

Great job on rebuilt carb. It looks better than the one in my Bentley manual. Top notch. Reasonably priced.

Rebuilt 30 pict-1. Looks amazing! Unfortunately I won't be able to install it until later this year, but can't wait.

Thank you.

I had Tim rebuild my stock OEM Solex 30 PICT-1 carb. Received it today via
2-day Priority Mail. Lightning fast turnaround. Looks and smells like new!
Will have it reinstalled in time for spring in my '66 Westy and I'm sure it will have the bus running like new.
Tim does exceptional work!! Thanks again!

I got my carb restored by Tim last month. Great work, excellent communication and a quick turn around. I recommended him to all my vw friends, and will be seeing more business from me in the future. Smile


here's how mine came out of the box:

Ordered an H30/31 carburetor. Came in fast and well packed. Had my Beetle up and running in an afternoon. Amazing quality. I'll have volkzbitz build/rebuild another carb for me in due time.

Pure awesome.

Or that's what you'd think if you saw the one he refurbished for me and heard the way my Bug purrs w/it installed! It's the 2nd one Tim's done for me.

He is an ARTIST as a carb mechanic and a great businessman in delivering and supporting what he advertises and you pay for! I'm already thinking of the next carb to send his way...

Thank you Tim!

Very Happy

Nothing but kudos for Tim at Volkzbitz. He does outstanding rebuilds on VW carbs. When the mechanic I've had for 15 years mounted one of Tim's rebuilt 30 Pict-3's on my 70 bug, he said it was one of the finest rebuilds he's seen in some time.

He added that more often than not when a customer brings him a "rebuilt" he pretty much has to re-do the work that's already been done. But not this time!

Tim, thank you for the beautiful 'brand new' German 34-pict-3 carb. I installed yours right out of the box and my super fired right up and and even idled. I have never had the idle at 900rpm so it didnt sound right. I followed your final tune instructions and its like I have a new car. No hesitation, no stalling at stop signs and it just purrs. Again thank you and I will recommend you everyone I know.
