Standard Solex Carburettor Chrome Air Filter - 3" High Round With Gauze Element

This aftermarket chrome top air filter is a stylish and functional upgrade for classic Volkswagen engines fitted with Solex 28 PICT, 30 PICT and 34 PICT carburettors. Suitable for VW Beetles, Karmann Ghias and VW Campervans running upright air-cooled engines, it replaces the bulky factory oil-bath air cleaner with a compact, efficient and easy-to-maintain unit.

The filter features a washable, reusable gauze element that allows excellent airflow while still capturing contaminants effectively. Increased intake flow can help improve throttle response and overall drivability, especially on engines that have been mildly tuned or fitted with performance exhausts. The chrome top and base give a clean, classic look in the engine bay and are ideal for show-quality vehicles or owners looking to tidy up their engine compartment.

Measuring 3″ high and 5½” in diameter, this filter sits neatly above the carburettor without fouling the fan shroud or the throttle linkage. It secures directly to the carburettor top using the supplied clamp ring.

Additional Parts That May Be Required:

• A crankcase breather connection (if your original oil-bath system was vented).

• Jetting adjustments if fitted to a modified performance engine.

This air filter is an excellent choice for owners wanting a cleaner, simpler and more serviceable filtration system that is quick to remove for carb tuning and maintenance.
