OUR ONLINE CHECKOUT is CLOSED and we are NOT accepting any NEW orders at this time.

We are still fulfilling and shipping previously submitted and/or delayed order requests (as product availability allows) UNTIL NOVEMBER 15th 2022.

But after November 15th, all still pending backordered unshipped items will be automatically CANCELLED **(except for any special ordered drop-shipped or made/machined-to-order items).

Our ability to respond to emails is greatly hampered by being under-staffed during this downsize transition time. But we continue to endeavor to answer email inquiries as best we can. And we will continue responding to emails through until early March 2023 because we are wholly committed to resolving any other issues that may arise from previous sales. It is still UNCERTAIN, but we may re-open a substantially downsized version of our store again in the Spring of 2023.

We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding during this period of restructuring and/or closing. And a huge thank you to all of you whose support and loyalty we have been the beneficiary of over the 23 years that we have worked diligently to support the information and parts needs of the aircooled VW community!

Dellorto DRLA "Anti-Whistle" Base Gasket, PAIR (Does 2 Carburetors), Dellorto-Whistle-Gasket
Dellorto DRLA "Anti-Whistle" Base Gasket, PAIR (Does 2 Carburetors), Dellorto-Whistle-Gasket


 
Dellorto DRLA "Anti-Whistle" Base Gasket, PAIR (Does 2 Carburetors), Dellorto-Whistle-Gasket stop that chirping! The "Dellorto Whistle" is famous (or infamous), the use of these gaskets will get rid of the Dellorto Whistle so you can hear the engine! ACN Tip: give the gaskets a quick rub with some Chap Stick, the wax will prevent sticking and tearing so you they can be used several times!

These gaskets fit the Dellorto 36, 40, 45, and 48 DRLAs. Made of a fuel resistant material, they are shaped to fill in the hole in the bottom of the Dellorto DRLA which causes the "Dellorto Whistle". These gaskets were available a long time ago, but supplies dried up, but here they are! This is for TWO (2) gaskets to do TWO (2) carburetors, a typical dual carb setup.

The correct torque for the 4 mount nuts is 10-15 INCH lbs. We also suggest tightening in a criss-cross pattern and bring the nuts down slowly to torque. Lastly, we recommend running a spring style lock washer under your nuts (see related items list at below right of this product listing).
Price: $39.95

5 of 5 Whistle stoppers October 4, 2019
Reviewer: James Franks from Murrieta, CA United States  
Hay , thanks so much for making these again, they make a big difference in sound. I do wish I saw the note years ago about coating them with chapstick, after a few years I needed to take my carbs off and the rubber has cracked in a few places and I will need a new set, I'm happy I can still get new ones, thanks
