Hello, anybody have experience with new Amal 276 . I'm thinking to buy one.
I have all barrels with 1 1/16" inlet, should I buy 1" carb as it says for M20? Or M21 type with M20 jetting?

Hi Kalle..I fitted a new 276 to my M20 about 5 years ago...I just put it on and it was very quick and easy to set up. Since then I've never looked at it...
My 720cc M20/21 runs a standard M21 carb with standard settings, but I ran the other 720 on an 1 1/8" B33 289... they seem very tolerant to substantial changes..The only difference between the M20 and 21 is the 1/16" difference in the choke size and the main jet size..a 170 for the M20 and, strangely, a 160 for the M21...
I'd buy the M21 carb and get the additional 170 main jet with it and then you can alter it if you need to..Ian

I'm tired to tune carb twice a day. My carb is worn out and totally wrong configuration. It's completed by far east specialists years ago.

Kalle,
i bought a new 276 direct from Amal, in my case for a 16H. Delivery to New Zealand was under a week and more than happy with the result.
My previous carb sounds very like your current one.

Hi Kalle,

I ordered a 276C/1B from Amal about 4 years ago,
Replacing an old and worn one which was more work than all the bike put together..

I installed it I never touched it since.

Noam.

I also bought a new Amal 276 with 1 1/16" bore for my M21 engine, which I'm quite pleased with. It was to replace the 1" M20 carb that Martyn refurbed and bored out to 1 1/16". I replaced his because I found the body was distorting very easily by the flange nuts and trapping the slide. The new one was exactly the same. I now Loktite the nuts and do them up quite lightly.
Henk tells me he has had the same problem with his M21 carbs. Ron
