Title: ariel arrow
Post by: hinckley on July 06, 2007, 11:47:19 PM

Hi
I have a 250 arrow that starts and ticks over nice but as soon as i try to ride it it struggles and almost dies.
As soon as i pull the clutch in it picks up and ticks over fine. Please help i am at my wits end .

NOT SURE IF YOU HAVE FOUND THE PROBLEM YET.
SOME OF  MY MATES RAN ARROWS IN THE 60'S. THEY ALL CARRIED SPARE CONDENSERS FOR THE POINTS. THEY MOSTLY FAILED UNDER LOAD.
