Whittingham warrior Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 (edited) Here is one for the small engine enthusiast(s) on the site. I've been sent two pictures of what once was an engine manufactured for military use. However, there are not data plates or anything so what is it? More pictures may follow As Toyah might have said "It's Mystery!" Edited May 11, 2020 by Whittingham warrior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Farrant Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Not sure about it being a Villiers, there are a few things that stand out as being different from that make, like the spark plug in the side of the head. Another possible make is a J.A.P. but cannot think of one that looks quite like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
