PICT 34 mods round one

This is the first set of mods I did to my Pict 34-3. I'm working on making it the ultimate cheap offroad carb, so I'll be trying lots of different stuff.

First mod was to delete all the choke components. This includes the butterfly, shaft, and choke controller on the side.

This is straight down the throat now that the plate is removed.



This is the choke assy removed with a hacksaw



Much cleaner on the side now


I also removed and plug the idle fuel shut off solenoid. The way to do this is cut the solenoid off right at the nut, remove all internal components, and fill with RTV.



I also experimented with venting the bowl up higher to stop fuel spilling into the throat on vertical climbs. This was my first rendition and not what I stayed with, I'll post the second version shortly.



Next post will continue on the Pict 34 mods. Next time we will get into throttle plate mods, port work, venturi mods, externally venting the float bowl, and some other work internally and externally. Until next time.
