A Made in Spain one then presumably?
They usually need a No4 slide from memory and a nice heavy slide usually made from chromed brass as the original zinc ally ones were very dangerous on open carbs. When it rained, the fuel would emulsify around the slide jamming it open. Had a few scary moments as a youth with this one.
I remember that we used to get these slides made specially back in the 70's. cos Amal didn't offer a solution to the problem at the time.
Has this changed I wonder?
