Mine also , many thanks to all involved.

Very nice , both my Model As have different wheels , so with yours that’s three different wheels.
From info I’ve gathered , the only plough available was a converted Wright hand plough , difficult to be sure , but I would say that is a continental plough.
If you need any spares , I also have an incomplete machine , as well as new pistons and engine spares.

Sounds like a JAP80 , flywheel is held on a taper with woodruff key. If it’s your first attempt at removing one I would suggest making a puller. Remove the starter pawl assembly , and use this as a template for your puller , the three screws can also be used for your puller. Grind a reasonably blunt point on your pulling bolt so it centralises in the end of the crankshaft , tension up and a VERY light tap with a hammer and it will pop off.
Let us know how you get on.

Do you mean F15 or MK15 , as far as I’m aware on the F15 the fins are an integral part of the flywheel , whereas on the MK15 they are a bolt on ring.

Only my personal opinion here , Trustys left the competition standing when it came to the actual plough itself , I’m far from convinced that the Trusty was actually the best machine. If competition ploughing is your aim , then yes , a Trusty is the way to go , but it is nice to see some of the lesser known machines at work , even if you don’t score as many points.

Good work Jim, nice to see the pioneering British manufacturer of our hobby getting due recognition.

I can only echo the above words.

If it’s not original , it appears a very neat job. I’ve no idea when Wrights stopped making their hand ploughs ,or when they started, they were certainly made in the late 1920s as the AutoCulto model A used a converted Wright hand plough.

That is the MK11C (ELEVEN).

Coils can’t be “PROPERLY” tested using a multimeter , have it tested on a professional ignition tester , your local small engine centre or mower repair shop should have one.
