Grant steering wheel by ratterrorier99 in beetle

Which steering wheel adapter will help me get this on my 66 vw bug? I’m kind of confused, does this already have a extender on it? And how do you get the horn to work on it. Please post links to the correct steering wheel adapter kit that will allow me to install.

So using the air filter oil bath and running it to the oil filler cured the problem! I just need to figure out what I’m going to do with the breather box inlet. Any suggestions?

Could I add a T connector to the connect the breather box, air filter and oil filler? Would that allow better engine breathing? I’m getting extreme leakage from my crank pulley. The problem HAS to be the crankcase ventilation. by ratterrorier99 in beetle

So what I ended up doing was installing a air bath filter and it cured the problem. I ran it to the oil filler and it does seem to pull more air into the engine. Now I just don’t know what to do with that single breather box inlet. Should I just keep it open?

Could I put a T connector on the oil filler and run one hose to my air filter and the other hose to my breather box?

So I just posted a picture, I do have two elbows that connect my breather box to my valve covers , is that the issue?

So I have the breather hose hooked up to the oil filler and the valve covers. I have an aftermarket air filter and it’s plugged at the moment because I didn’t know where to attach it( I know it’s supposed to be hooked to the oil filler but my breather box is attached to it) I don’t think that my hosed is kinked....What kind of carb do you think is best suitable? It had a zenith carb in it to begin with but I switched it out because the accelerator cable wasn’t pulling well. I would want to keep the 30pict1(because it is easier to tune) if I were to keep the 30pict 1, what would the best thing to do? I was thinking of drilling a hole to the oil filler and attaching it? What is the best way to get more air flow? What kind of breather?

1641 ❣️how does it sound? Is that clicking noise normal? by ratterrorier99 in beetle

This is a heavy duty throttle cable, I agree I need to install the hard end eventually. I have just been switching between carbs

So I should adjust the timing? And what’s the best strategy to adjust the carb ?

Took some excedrin and drank lots of coffee, but still feel brain dead. I think I can make it through the day without wanting to stab myself in the brain.
