Yeah Man, I sold the gti a few days ago pretty cheap. To bad i sold it because i still havent got my squareback running right. I been in process of rebuilding carbs and the one works great but on my other 32SPDIT or what ever letters it is, its the smallest and i cant figure out how to adjust it. I just know there are 3 parts of the carb and on the butterfly part there is a adjustment screw with a notch cut into it on both carbs like with a high speed cut off width type of notch and its brass i believe and there are a few other funky screw that covers passages but dont seem adjustable and stuff who knows? Plus with it being 20F in the day and 14to 10 at night its not a good time to really be trying to soak these things. Im soaking them in a 1 gal. can made from the MFG. gunk and it has the little parts screen in the middle. Does anyone know anything about the adjustments and how many times this type of soaking chemical would be good for?
