• Function: Seals diaphragm pump cover to carb body; maintains correct pump shot
• Position: Carburettor—accelerator/fuel pump section
• Benefits: Leak-free sealing, consistent tip-in enrichment, OE geometry for easy install
Over time, the diaphragm pump gasket can harden, tear, or deform, leading to small fuel leaks or inconsistent carburettor performance.
Replace the gasket whenever:
• The old gasket appears brittle, cracked, or fuel-soaked.
• You notice inconsistent accelerator pump delivery or hesitation when pressing the throttle.
• Performing a carburettor rebuild or replacing the pump diaphragm.
• As preventive maintenance on long-stored vehicles or engines exposed to modern ethanol-blended fuels.
Installing a fresh Gasket ensures a secure seal, stable fuel pressure, and smooth accelerator pump operation — preserving proper drivability and performance in your Porsche 356 or 912.

• Position: Carburettor – idle fuel circuit
• Function: Controls idle fuel flow for stable low-speed engine operation
• Precision-calibrated to match the factory specification (“U 1.8”) for stable idle fuel delivery.
• Direct-fit OE geometry ensures correct installation in Solex 40 PII-4 carburettors without adjustment.
• Optimized performance for reliable starts, smooth idling, and accurate throttle response in classic Porsche engines.
• Ideal for restorations, tuning, or routine maintenance where drivability and period-correct operation are key.
Over time, idle jets can become clogged, worn, or corroded, affecting the carburettor’s ability to meter fuel correctly at low speeds.
Common symptoms of a failing or blocked idle jet include:
• Rough or uneven idling Hard starting when cold
• Hesitation or flat spots on throttle tip-in
• Excessive fuel smell or poor fuel economy
Replace the idle jet whenever:
• Performing a carburettor rebuild or tuning service
• You detect uneven idle or mixture issues
• The old jet shows visible damage, corrosion, or deposits
• The vehicle has been stored for long periods or exposed to ethanol-blended fuels
Installing a new idle jet restores accurate fuel metering, ensuring your classic Porsche runs smoothly and maintains its original performance characteristics.

This fitting forms the essential junction between the intake manifold runner and the cylinder head, ensuring an airtight, stable connection that delivers balanced airflow and fuel mixture to each combustion chamber.
Manufactured from high-grade cast aluminium alloy, its matches Porsche’s original dimensions and port geometry, guaranteeing accurate fitment and smooth intake flow. Its machined sealing surfaces ensure reliable gasket compression and prevent air leaks that can lead to poor idle or misfiring.
When installed as a pair (set of two), these fittings provide complete support for dual-carburetor configurations, restoring authentic engine response and drivability.
The intake fittings on classic Porsche engines are exposed to years of heat cycling, vibration, and fuel vapors, which can lead to warping, corrosion, or leakage at the sealing surfaces.
Replace this fitting when:
• Performing a carburetor or manifold rebuild
• You detect vacuum leaks or poor idle quality
• Original fittings show cracks, corrosion, or distortion
• Restoring an engine to factory intake specification
Installing a new ensures precise airflow distribution, correct carburetor mounting, and reliable intake sealing — restoring smooth idle, balanced performance, and classic Porsche driveability.

The jet (nozzle) controls the fuel metering in a section of the carburettor — by providing a calibrated aperture for fuel flow, it helps maintain the correct air-fuel mixture at a given throttle or load.
It ensures consistent fuel delivery in the mid or high-load range (depending on exactly which circuit the “115” jet pertains to) which in turn supports smooth throttle response, proper acceleration, consistent idle behaviour and correct mixture under varying conditions.
A correctly spec’d jet helps avoid lean or rich conditions that can cause hesitation, flat spots, unstable idling, poor throttle tip-in or excessive fuel consumption.
In a restoration or rebuild context: replacing worn, damaged or incorrect jets ensures the carburettor operates as originally designed, which is especially important in period-correct classic vehicles.

• Use cases: Ideal during carb rebuilds, restoring stuck/damaged carriers, or standardizing mismatched carb internals to factory spec.
• Function: Positions and seals the main jet; maintains correct emulsion well height and fuel flow path
• Installation: Fit with correct main jet size; ensure seat is clean, threads lightly oiled, and torque gently to avoid damaging the carb body
Over time, the main jet carrier can suffer from thread wear, corrosion, or deformation caused by repeated jet changes and fuel exposure. A damaged or loose carrier may cause fuel leakage, poor jet seating, or inconsistent mixture flow. Replace it whenever threads are stripped, the hex is rounded, or corrosion is visible. It’s also recommended during any carburetor rebuild or tuning service to ensure accurate fuel metering and stable performance in your Porsche 356 or 912.

Precision Carburetors & Components – Heritage
Performance and Reliability for Porsche Classics
Carburetors remain the beating heart of many classic
Porsche engines, delivering the perfect air-fuel mixture for smooth,
responsive combustion. At Design911, we offer a comprehensive range of high-quality
carburetors and replacement components designed to maintain or enhance the
authentic driving experience of vintage and air-cooled Porsche models.
From complete carburetor assemblies to jets, diaphragms, gaskets, floats, and linkages, our products are engineered to precise manufacturer standards, ensuring consistent performance, easy tuning, and reliable fuel delivery — whether for restoration or motorsport use.
What Do Carburetors and Carburetor Parts Do?
A carburetor’s role is to blend fuel and air in the correct ratio before it enters the engine. This process ensures efficient combustion, smooth throttle response, and optimal power output.
Core Functions:
- Regulate
air-fuel mixture for various engine speeds and loads.
- Deliver
consistent fuel flow for smooth idling and acceleration.
- Maintain
throttle response across changing temperatures and altitudes.
- Support efficient combustion and improved drivability in heritage engines.
Modern performance replacements and rebuild kits allow older Porsche models to retain their period-correct feel while achieving modern levels of reliability.
Why Do Carburetors Fail?
Over time, carburetors and their internal components degrade
due to fuel varnish, dirt contamination, and mechanical wear. Common
failure symptoms include:
- Hard
starting or stalling due to clogged jets or passages.
- Uneven
idling or misfiring from air leaks or worn gaskets.
- Poor
acceleration or fuel economy caused by sticking floats or needle
valves.
- Fuel leaks or drips from perished seals or warped housings.
Regular inspection and replacement of worn parts prevent poor performance, fuel inefficiency, and potential engine damage.
Why Replace with Precision-Engineered Carburetor Components?
Replacing worn components with precision-engineered carburetor parts ensures your Porsche’s engine maintains its legendary throttle feel and power delivery.
Key Benefits:
- Restores
consistent air-fuel mixing and smooth engine operation.
- Improves cold starting and throttle response.
- Eliminates
leaks and uneven idle, improving drivability.
- Extends
engine life through correct fueling and reduced detonation risk.
- Maintains
heritage authenticity with manufacturer-quality materials and
machining.
- Perfect compatibility with period-correct Porsche carburetor systems (e.g., Weber, Solex, Zenith).
Whether you’re rebuilding a classic 911, 914, or 356, our selection of carburetors and components delivers modern precision with period-correct performance.
Highlights:
- Complete
range of carburetors and rebuild components for Porsche classics.
- Precision-machined
parts ensure reliable fuel delivery and response.
- Manufacturer-quality
fitment for seamless installation.
- Improved
combustion efficiency and performance consistency.
- Compatible with Weber, Solex, and Zenith systems.
- Ideal for engine restorations, rebuilds, and tuning projects.
