Hello This is my first post here so plese be patiant. I have bought a Villiers Mk10 air-cooled engine from an aution and am now trying to gather enough info to overhall it get it running. Raspajka usb serial 4 5.

I have found the Winget company site and downloaded the manuals they have available here but as there are two editons for different years I now need to know how old my engine might be. Is it possible to tell from the serial number? The maker's plate says Villiers Mk10 No 851/148562D The engine is not fitted to any equipment but might have been used on a farm elivator or simmilar. Finally, does anyone know if Villiers Industrial are still in bussiness and, if so, what their contact details are? Thanks very much for any help.

What is it about the flywheel that I am looking for? Is it something I could see though the space arround the starter pully, or will the blower housing need to be removed? It my be a little while before I can get back to you about this as I will have to retrieve the engine from where I have stored it and if it need any dismantling it will have to wait till I have cleared some workshop space for the resto! Thanks for the help and I may well need your stocks of parts in due couse.
