Can you tell me more about this problem?
My '67 square i’ve had for a 17years now, had a “reconditioned” gas tank when I got it. I haven’t been using it much the last 3 years because I got stalled out on this problem. It started choking up, I think fouling out the plugs, but I can’t remember for sure, might have been restricted fuel flow?
I do remember he said that they ran it off an external tank and it had no problems, that I needed new tank. I bought a new used tank, but it’s a super rust bucket.. idk if it’s restorable.
Sadly he has since retired. And my DIY vw fixing is so far in my past.. maybe I can revive it and get this thing fun again.
