Re: Repairing stripped Amal carb threads
Sorry slight exaggeration just went out to the shed and had a look, there are enough inserts to repair 12 carbs. If your going to search for it on ebay the brand is Zuess Industrial Tools - Thread repair kit

Re: Repairing stripped Amal carb threads

Re: Will this 102 run OK?
Hi there are no numbers imprinted on the carb body at all. The twin jet villiers I have has the id stamped behind the collar that attaches to the block but not on the Amal anywhere. The carb slide has a diameter of 19 mm. Length at highest point 23 mm lowest point (angle) 14.3mm. Hope you have been ...
