You can find our full range of Amal Carburettors in stock online.
Amal Carburettors have been regular race winners since the earliest days of motorcycling-and they keep on winning, year in year out.
If your bike is fitted with one or more Amal carburettors and has seen a lot of mileage on the street, trail or dirt- you’ll find that refitting with an all-new Amal carburettor system will bring back some of that new motorcycle engine performance you first experienced your first time out of your dealers showroom.
Amal carburettors were originally made by Amal Ltd in Birmingham, England. They are now made by Burlen Ltd in Salisbury, England.  Classic Bike Spares is an Australian distributor of genuine Amal carburettors and Amal spare parts. Be aware that if Amal is not stamped on the part you are buying it is not a genuine Amal.
Amal carburettors can be damaged by careless installation to the engine. Use the following instructions to avoid distorting your carburettors.
The flange to which the carburettor is attached must be perfectly flat and clean. Remove all traces of old gaskets and gasket cement before installation. If possible remove manifolds with uneven surfaces and restore flatness using wet and dry paper over a flat surface, or fine grinding paste on a piece of glass. Heat reducing spacers should be similarly treated to ensure flatness. Bolting the carburettor to a distorted flange or uneven spacer increases the risk of carburettor body or flange distortion.
Always remove and replace the carburettor fully assembled, with the float chamber and mixing chamber lid, throttle cable and slide components installed. This ensures maximum rigidity of the assembly while it is being installed.
Tighten the mounting nuts carefully and evenly. Nuts and spring washers should be tightened until the spring washer is just flattened. Over-tightening the nuts will over-compress the flange gaskets at the flange extremities and may warp the flange, and in extreme cases the carburettor body, causing the throttle valve to stick.
Mk 1 carburettors are not designed to bolt tightly to the intake flange and may distort if overtightened. It is only necessary to compress the o-ring seal to ensure air tightness. When correctly tightened the carburettor flange and engine manifold should be no more than just touching. Nyloc nuts should always be used to mount Amal Mk 1 carburettors.
Where the thicker o-rings are used, on early Monoblocs and some Mk 1 carburettors, the nuts should be tightened until the clearance between the carburettor flange and the manifold surface is no less than 0.025 inches at all points.
Ensure that throttle and choke cables are able to open and shut freely when the petrol tank is replaced on the bike. Also make sure they are not affected by moving the handlebars from side to side.
