Lee - nice one!
Bit of a bu**er about the carb. I've been buying the premium Concentrics (from Amal) just because the pilot arrangement is much improved

Re: Ariel for sale in Sweden
Decided to have a good look at the photos :mrgreen: Pic 1 - nice set of sidecar mountings on view and the extension for the silencer mounting and (on standard frames) the pillion footrest lug, oh, what's that dark blob about half way along? :twisted: swedishHS1.jpg . Pic 2 - is that an HS footrest? ...

Re: Ariel for sale in Sweden
Is that this one?

(The HS looks a bit odd, or is that a works sidecar frame 'spare' that never had a frame number? And without the HS air cleaner and oil tank??)

Re: 1954 Petrol tank?
Interesting!
The 1954 sales literature shows an Anstey frame VB with a fluted tank but still with the earlier style enamel 'strip' badge. Maybe it's a 1955 tank - I wonder what the parts books show...!!

Re: No Oil Pressure on Gauge? 1950-350 NH
Joe I'm not sure anyone has mentioned this explicitly - you have an engine with a roller-bearing big-end and roller bearings in themselves don't give (and don't need) oil pressure. The use of the oil pressure gauge on an Ariel single is a bit artificial as all it really measures is the pressure agai...

Re: KH Carburation Saga
The two-stroke monobloc often has an angled spray tube in the jet block and different needle jets (with no cross-hole?), If you've been trying to get a two-stroke carb to run on a four-stroke engine it might be troublesome....
