Earlier this month I attended a private engine crank-up where a Sachs powered Masport was brought along to be repaired.

This engine/mower combinations has previously been discussed HERE

Ignition parts were scavenged from a similar Briggs powered Masport and a spark produced.
The carburetor was dismantled and cleaned but unfortunately I had to leave before it came to life.
In a couple of photos you can see the problematic coir matting air filter on the red tool box, this example was caked with dirt and oil.

cheers
Alan

G'day Mod Alan M
That's a clever name akin to a bloke 'cook-up' I guess?
Many thanks for the update on the NZ scene.

These Wankel engines are intriguing for sure.
And they went into production ... and had success ...

Unlike AUS's failed attempt with the ill-fated, snake-oil based Sarich ...
What were Victa thinking ...
