The SOLEX 28PICT was introduced for the 1961 model year on the 40hp engine (1192cc) for both the beetle and transporter vehicles. This carburetor retained the same throat size as its predecessor the 28 PCI but unlike it incorporated an automatic choke circuit. Furthermore, the carburetor body was completely redesigned with the accelerator pump circuit mounted on the right side of the carburetor instead of the front. Other significant internal changes are also apparent including placement of various jets and the manner of their design. The 28 PICT remained in service from 1961 through 1963 when it was replaced by the 28 PICT-1 which was essentially identical to the 28 PICT with the exception of the automatic choke circuit. The former had a vacuum activated piston which activated the choke butterfly whereas the latter was equipped with a replaceable vacuum diaphragm. The 28 PICT-1 was used on the later 40hp engines (those with square boss heads) for 1964 and 1965. An even later version of this carburetor, the 28 PICT-2 was offered as a factory replacement sometime after 1965. It differed from the earlier versions in that it has an external spring return like the 30 PICT-1 and later carburetors to help return the accelerator linkage to idle. All three versions of the 28 PICT carburetor have an active power fuel circuit which draws fuel directly from the float bowl under engine load or high engine rpm. Further information including jetting specifications and chassis numbers may be found in the 'Technical' page.
