HI
  Iam fitting a mikuni carb to my BSA BLEADER(ARIEL ARROW ENGINE).Can any-one who has already done this let me know the jetting/set up they are using?

TGR90B:
Easier to fit the correct Monobloc.

ianmac:
hi
 leaders/arrows are well known for poor HOT STARTING,a problem that i have!reading various articles regarding this,, the majority
say fitting a mikuni eliminates this problem+easier starting,&smoother idle.

Personally I follow the old saying that most carburettor problems are ignition, and to me poor hot starting sings of ignition problems.

Cheers,

i have  fitted pazon ignition system &set timing as advised.this is a common problem on this engine as many owners have high-lighted
&on the old ariel leader/arrow forum this was discussed&the best solution was fitting a mikuni &achieved the desired effect-better
all round running &especially eliminates the hot start problem
