air filter preheating It seems to be a natural part of your air-cooled engine, but the air filter plays a crucial role, it's like breathing in a human being. The carburettor is tasked with mixing petrol with air to deliver a flammable mixture. Petrol alone is not a good fuel. That requires oxygen and not just a little bit of it.

fuel circuit - concept The combustion engine of our air-cooled Volkswagen uses a mixture of petrol and air. It is extremely important that both the amount of air and the purity of the air are regulated, this also applies to the petrol. Unfortunately, the petrol circuit is not very well known to enthusiasts and it is not always well maintained.
