Yes any 3/16" steel ball will do but Draganfly have them and the spring. https://www.draganfly.co.uk/index.php/accessories-a-misc/product/21533- https://www.draganfly.co.uk/index.php/accessories-a-misc/product/13341- I'm also sure that Les at Russells and C&D Auto's will too. Ron

Yes I wondered about that? But couldn't remember. Drags have both, but list 3/16" for 1939 and 1/4" for 1946 to the 50's. Ron
Thanks for all the help. Joe.
Thanks Ron, will do. With reference to the hot starting, the magneto has less than 1000 miles on it from new in 6 months.
Have you got a Tufnol type spacer between the barrel and the carb flange? If not try fitting one as this can cure many a hot starting problem as without one, fuel can boil due to the heat from the barrel. Regards Pat

Thanks, I think I will try a spacer, sorry to be a pain but do you know of a supplier or part number for the spacer for the WM20?
It's a 1" bore x 1/8" thick (or metric equivalent) .....90182 from here http://www.hitchcocksmotorcycles.com/amal-carburettors-miscellaneous or the heat insulator gasket. Or Google "Surrey Cycles" Ron
