Not that I have looked it up, but I would think the jetting to be different.

> Is there any difference in a Auto Stick carb. and a standard shift carb.? The Autostick carbs wore a different flange number. The jetting seems the same, though interestingly enough Ghias were jetted differently likely due to their air cleaner differences. The autostick carb did also have a second port on the back as Joey alluded to...it is on the right hand side (back is back. This port, as Joey stated goes to the control valve using 3.5mm vacuum hose. The universal carbs offered today would need the port drilled to be used properly. The boss is there (as it is on all the 34 pict 3's). This link shows teh port in question. http://www.vwar.org/forum/index.php?topic=855.0 |

Remember I am out of the business and its hard to feel ignorant telling him that the carb from a standard shift will work when I'm setting here on a beach in south Miami enjoying my retirement. not to say that I haven't done a little work when someone has been willing to pay $90 an hour for my services. |

Good to see some things never change. The net is full of folks like you that like to pass along information that isn't entirely accurate. You are not unique. |
