Here for sale is my Ariel Arrow, it has loads of work done to it starting full respray two pack epoxy undercoat and two pack poly top coat, the dummy tank is just cellulose, this was done around 18 month ago when I was about 6 months into the renovations. Engine had a re-conditioned crank with rebor...

Hi Roger I have access to a press and have done it on my triumph Tiger cub but, the cub Manual does tell you how to do it and runs fine the arrow makes no reference to it so although I did do it on the old arrow crank that i had to replace a key that the machinist had messed up when he did the centr...

Hi Bob
I have now had to take the crank out as it has somehow worked loose and sheared the key that locate's both sides of the crank on the centre taper, I am am not sure if to tackle this job without sending it to an expert.

Hi all
I have had to take the crankshaft out as the key that locate's the two halves has sheared, the only way to get to this is to remove the big end pin so is it possible to remove the big end or would it be better to have it done professionally.
Thanks
Alan

Hi Brian I would agree with you that a recondition carburetor can play up but i have now had the original one which was in good condition and this one so i have sort of ruled the carburetor out. I had an Arrow back in the sixties and never had this bother. I will update once i get the points back on...

I am just taking my Pazon electronic ignition off to rule that out as i have already had a fault with it.

Hi Graham
Yes had a new set, i am now taking off the Pazon electronic ignition to rule that out.
Alan

Hi Ian
Yes it has the waste spark.

Hi all
My arrow just will not run right at all, sounds perfect under load up to half throttle but after that miss fires and cuts out, it has a pazon electronic ignition running off a six volt supply, carburetor has been fully reconditioned and the engine is fully reconditioned.
Thanks
Alan

Thanks Dave
My arrow above half throttle seems to miss and spit back so I think it's loosing it's spark or it is irratic at high rev's. My Pazon is for 6 or 12 volt but I assume I will have to use 2 - 6 volt coils instead of the 3 volt supplied.
