I just bought a new empi 34 pict carb for my 1641 DP. I cannot get it to tune right. Everytime I think it might be good when I go drive it, it starts sputtering and almost sounds like its backfiring through the carb. I just set the timing so that shouldnt be a problem. I would appreciate any help. Thanks

Here's a link that explains everything to check:

Don't skip anything or assume it's already been done properly. It's basic maintenance and it doesn't take long to do.

I’m so thankful for the samba.com

Just found out that this is the issue I have for my 64 sedan. The link is gold. I also found this procedure on YouTube in Spanish with some extra tips Very Happy Very Happy
