Villiers MK12HS

Post by Collector Inspector »

Picked another Villiers up this morning.......I dusted it down.

Very original with a weak spark and some compression.

There are lots around you just have to pick your MK so to speak :lol: :lol:

I do not know serial numbers but this one would be at the end of production.

Australian Champion 7 Com -L. Interesting in itself.

Nice Find. You may find that the valve clearances have closed up. All the ones I have played with, have had that problem. A quick valve grind, and it will likely be good as gold, as far as compression goes.
Cheers,

Between this Small engine kit

and an older style hand valve profile/cutter should be sweet!

I will service it and start it first. One Day.

Looks good under the TV stand by the way..... :twisted:

Nice Valve Reseating Kit. On an engine as nice as yours, it probably only needs the valves cleaned and lapped etc. Love the idea of a Villiers under the TV LOL :lol:
I doubt I could sneak a motor into the house, and certainly not close to the TV. :lol: :lol:
Cheers
