Hello All I have a 1969 T100S Trying to figure out if I need a new air filter for my Amal carb as it has threading but my filter does not... I understand that there is a sleeve that bridges this gap between the carb and filter but dont understand how that would work as the carb has a very thin (sleeve) on it as is -see photo. Do I need a new air filter? or Do I need a sleeve? How will this work? Thanks
It looks like the original figment was small pancake filters. These people should see you right https://www.classicbikeshop.co.uk/a...-breather-hoses/amal-carburettor-filters.html
The spacer ring screws onto the carb that has threads on the inlet port to take up the slack between filter and inlet and then a jubilee clip clamps the filter to the carb inlet. Also maybe you have the spacer and just need the jubilee clip.
Hi Erik, Welcome to the forum. I had a '67 Tiger 100, Lovely bikes to ride. I think my filter was just held on with a jubilee clip, onto the back of the carb, it was over 40 years ago, but I think my memory is right. .........over 40 years ago
