The 1966 VW Beetle Forum

I was just at The Great Canadian VW Show and a lot of people had the OE flat pedal or opted for a cruiser pedal ... The roller was discontinued for a reason I guess. Save it for Dune Buggys. Any other thoughts out there?

Hi, I recently had to replace my 44 year old pedal assembly, it was still working ... but, the brake pin popped out under heavy braking and lucky for me - the E brake was tight. So, I had to replace it. My search for a 66' assembly was tough - so, I had to replace it with the "standard" re...

Awesome advice ... thanks so much. My goal is to have this VW running good. Problem is that before I purchased the car - the former owner did these "mods" and I don't think they help much. Another few questions; 1.) what is the difference btween a 34 pict-1 and a 34 pict-3? I've heard that...

Can any tell by looking at my photos if my engine is a single or dual port?

Thanks!

Okay, now that I got the photos up ... I'll explain a little more. I fail air-care here in B.C. (Canada emissions testing) and my mechanic always says after tweaking the carb (to pass) set-up that this 66' breathes oddly ... because the carb isn't correct to the motor, etc. Also, when, I hit the gas...

One more.

Another pic.

Here are some photos.

I'll try to post some photos to help out my question.
Thanks, as always.

Hi,

Will my "breathing" problems stop if I change my PICT 30/31 to a PICT 34? I have 66' with a 1600 running a PICT 30/31 from the original 1300.

Please advise ... thanks all!

Having some trouble posting pictures.

Do you still have the photos ?

Sorry, Barrett-Jackson is on and my typing skills are reflecting that.

One more thing, I have had great luck with Wolfsberg West - As John mentioned as well.

Canadian dollar is going up and buying from the U.S. - doesn't hurt as much, but the duty fees do !!

Take 66' fans !!!

Welcome Russ !!! The 66' is the best. But, they're all great. You'll love the 66', I own a Euro Model which now live in Canada with me. Check it in the gallery (Vancouver 66). Brazil part are just not as good as German. I have a pair of Brazil value cover and they less the impressive. Leaky buggers....

Thanks, I'll have to check them out in Langley. I'd love to see the pics from the GCVWS (Great Canadian VW Show).

Don't forget to check out mine as well, the Vancouver 66' !!!!
