Hi all
First time on the forum and hopefully someone can identify the Villiers engine I have recently purchased. I have searched on the forum with no luck identifying the model or year. I believe it is hard know what the engine was used for. Below are photos if that is any help.
The numbers I have managed to see so far without stripping the engine are:
On the crank case halves: 246X 10737
Barrel: C9095
On the crank case close to where the magneto is bolted to: 1731(faintly)
There are no legible numbers next where it says Magneto serial number
I hope to get the engine going if possible, it seems to have reasonable compression and would like to no what model it is before restoring.
Regards
Steve
