Don't know for sure. Fastbacks and Arrows in the U.S. used 150 CDSE carbs
with a non-adjustable jet for smog purposes, and there may have been other
models later in other parts of the world. My old Hunter/Arrow workshop
manual 1972 says that the spring-loaded needle and piston must be assembled
with the needle having a "spring bias" to lean outwards, or "3 degrees
towards the inlet manifold end of the carburettor."
