The EMPI 44-1094-0 is a genuine EMPI 0.45 accelerator pump jet for EMPI D-Series (EPC) carburetors, as used on the 1970–1976 Porsche 914 and air-cooled VW engines. It meters the fuel squirt the accelerator pump delivers on throttle tip-in, so it is the part you change to tune off-idle hesitation or bog.

Why It Matters
A lean pump shot shows up as a flat, breathless hitch just as you crack the throttle open. This 0.45 EMPI pump jet (44-1094-0) sets the squirt into a D-Series carb, filling that off-idle hole with the fuel it was missing.
Installation Notes
The pump jet threads into the pump discharge circuit of the D-Series carburetor.
Move one size at a time and road-test between changes to dial out hesitation and bog.
Frequently Asked Questions
What carburetor does the EMPI 44-1094-0 pump jet fit?
The EMPI 44-1094-0 fits EMPI D-Series (EPC) carburetors, including those on the 1970–1976 Porsche 914 and air-cooled VW engines.
What does a 0.45 accelerator pump jet do?
It meters how much fuel the accelerator pump squirts when you open the throttle, which controls off-idle response. The 0.45 size is one step in EMPI's D-Series pump jet range.
Why does my carbureted VW or 914 stumble when I hit the throttle?
A stumble or bog right as the throttle opens, that clears once the engine is moving, usually points to the pump shot. Changing the pump jet size one step at a time is how that tip-in hole is tuned out.
What is the EMPI part number for the D-Series 0.45 pump jet?
EMPI part number 44-1094-0 (also searched as 4410940).
Will a D-Series pump jet fit a Weber or Solex carb?
