Wanted A7 plunger Star Twin '52 Amal 276FD/1DB Carb
« on: 05.12. 2016 20:16 »
Hi,

I'm seeking a replacement carb as part of my rebuild for my Star Twin. If anyone can help that would be fantastic as new price is somewhat on the high side.

Thanks

Richard

Given in and now ordered a new one. Unsurprising, but not an off the shelf item so will have to wait a couple of weeks from Amal.
Certainly test the flexible friend.

I didn't think that they were making the right hand bowl carbys, only the left hand type.
