Paul,
In reply to question two. You will see on the flywheel side of the crankshaft a cut which is the mark and if no mark then place a screw driver down the plug hole to work top dead centre. Then the points should start to open 3/16" before top dead centre. You then tighten up the flywheel as it is on a tapper.
I have e-mailed you some information on the villiers engine.
Regards,
Bruce
