Carburettor Heater Element

[philb115]

Anyone have one of the small black carb heater elements lying around? Might be hanging off a pierburg you’ve thrown in the bin… looks like this (without the big metal bit obviously):

They’re available from VW Classic Parts but for like £40… Otherwise I’ll be heading for the scrappy []

I’m going to revive this zombie-thread…

I’m lacking a Pierburg heater element, AKA a throttle body heater. Listed as part 026906333 but discontinued ages ago. I’ve dug around on ebay but I’m guessing it’s a scrappy job… Not even availabe on VW classic parts anymore 🙁

I have a pierburg or two knocking about & some engines – is it part of the carb? got a piccie of what I’m looking for by any chance? (the posted pic isnt showing up). you should be able to upload them here (even works from my phone in chrome).

..or wait – is this the “hedgehog” thing we’re on about?

It’s #37 on the attached diagram. It looks like a small black cylinder with a raw metal face, with a wire hanging off it…
