Spare parts list from an old Beck/Arnley dealer catalog
Updated: 2009 Aug 20
Thanks to Robert A. Greene for providing this information. Here is the history behind this spare parts list (in Robert's own words)…
In December 1973, when I bought my new '73/'74 Eldorado, I observed that the Moto Guzzi instruction book listed information about Dell’Orto carburetors, only, whereas my bike was equipped with a pair of Amal carbs.
I asked the dealer if he could furnish a parts list for the AMAL carbs, and he gave me a spare set from his Beck/Arnley dealer catalog, which I misfiled several years ago, but, knew would turn up, eventually.
While searching for a chain saw instruction book, tonight, I finally stumbled across the AMAL parts list, misfiled with a map to Indianapolis.
Though the prices are obviously 33 years out of date, your readers may find the descriptions and part numbers useful.

Thanks to Robert F. Greene for providing this information. In Robert's own words:
Amal Carburettor not only has some high quality images of the Mk1 600 and 900 series carbs that are found on the MG products, but they have rebuild kits and a very comprehensive list of available replacement parts for these old gems. Replacement bodies, replacement slides, springs, gaskets, screws, needle valves, the works - but what blew me away is the fact that you can order BRAND NEW Mark 1 Concentric Carbs directly from Amal, with your choice of bore - and other than having improved on a number of the component parts over the years, these are visually and functionally identical to the classic originals.
