My last 3 brand new brosal carbs have been leaky pieces of crap. At first I
thought it might be gas additives, so I switched around gas brands, no dice.
After replacing the base gasket every two weeks, I finally realized it was in
the shaft. One is a 34 two were 31's. I got a german rebuilt one on the samba
from a guy who re bushes the shafts and stuff. I haven't run it yet, but he is
supposed to do good work.
A brosal might be ok for an occasional driver, but I'll never again put one on
a daily or high mileage car.

Either a 30 pict or a 30/31 pict. With the smaller 1500 sp manifold.
The larger sp manifold or a dual port will use a 34 pict 3
A euro 1300 dp will be a 30/31 pict.
As far as options there's also the Weber replacement carb that is a direct
replacement. You can also use an adapter to go from 30/31 to 34 and vice versa.

The correct carb for your model assuming it is a single port 1500 is a Solex 30
PICT 1 ( I think). However, all of the replacement carbs that I have seen in
the past few years are the Bocar/Bosal or something like that which are
supposedly the Brazilian copy of the Solex and it's probably just going to be a
generic equivalent of the 30 PICT 1.

Thanks for the suggestions,
I have talked to Kenny before. I called him once and he had what I was looking
for I just ended up not actually needing it. I need to stop by and have a
chat
with him.
Will there be any options on this kind of carb?

Yo Mark, he's in Austin!
Don't know anywhere in Austin to get a new carb. You might look on
theSamba for a good used one?
