have been searching for a montessa 349 manual 82-85 , for a mates sons bike i'm fixing , closest ive found is a montessa 247 65-75 manual some guy gave me as e bay stopped him selling it as it might be in "copywright" , bulls##t ,
anyways its got a big section on carbs , BINGS a spanish make , an amals ,monoblocks n concentric mk1 n 2's , stripin /fixin/tuning n jetting , all 2 stroke carbs , i know theres not many on here who use em but , if anybods want a copy drop me a pm with a e mail address for a pdf ,or a street address for a disc by post ,an i'll break out the choccy stash n get my IT expert (slave) right on it , well after her homeworks done an ferrets cleaned out , H

contact amal and ask for a manual. say you are making a shopping list for stafford and they will probably send one for free. their phone number is normaly on the website but the site is down at the moment. found the number 01722 412 500 now called burgen fuel systems incorporating amal email info@amalcarb.co.uk |

Thats cool, the page you put up lists the body number of a 27mm and a 25mm concentric as 627 and 625 respectively, which is what I need to identify a carb, and burlen services is in salisbury,(20 miles up the road from me, bloody handy!)
