Re: Engine Number

Rojer and Julian,
Just a little story from 1973.
I had been working at Aviemore in Scotland and was heading to London where I was to leave the Ariel while I visited the Munich Beer Festival.

Re: Engine Number

Thank you Roger,

I only have the Engine and Registration Numbers.
I rode the bike around the UK for 12 months whilst on holiday in 1973, it was the start of my Ariel obsession.
How would I go about tracing the current owners if it is still in the UK.

Bob White.

Nev,
The pump is a Morgo plunger pump which I believe designed for the Ariel Singles. I am hoping it improves the return rate to the oil tank.
Thanking You

Re: Sludge Trap Replacement.

Pete,
Thanks for the reply.
I have ordered 3 of the Sludge Traps from Single Spares and will hunt down a metric six sided socket to use with them which will be modified to your specs.
I like your idea of the T Bar as well. Very clever.

Thanking you
Bob White.

Hi,
