had a mare today throttle cable broke when I took top off carb to remove cable noticed the needle clip has broken too.

The clip fell off the needle as I took it out .

bought new needle clip but have no Idea which slot to put it on .

any ideas on which slot would be great as far as I know the carb and jets are standard .

cheers

aslo there is no real signs of any wear or marks where clip was so im a bit stumped

what happens if I put it on top slot?

middle slot ?

bottom slot ?

please help

regards

Put it on the middle slot which is the normal position

Top slot means the needle sits lower so lets less fuel through - weaker mixture in mid to high range

Bottom slot means the needle sits higher so lets more fuel through - richer mixture in mid to high range

You'll find that the needle clip being broken on an Amal is quite common but they still hold the needle when in situ
