And plenty of noise I am thinking of bringing the SIMAR 56. Had a quick look through my JAP engine literature and could not identify engine, trouble is they made so many different models.
Great to see the two side by side, a before and after effect. Interesting to see MT20/21 cast on gear case; Monro Tiller used MT for their part numbers eg MT 1 was half the main gearbox case.
mickattwo the message a lot of us had from a spammer and the associated e mail notification sent by website had no request for bank details have you had something different?
Spammer deleted. Thanks for letting me know. This is the first time we have had a spammer use the message system. Very few get past the sign up process.
I had a problem with my Trusty Earthquake, started and ran well then started stopping and playing up. I suspected fuel, checked flow from tank to carb, that was OK. Took carb off and found water in fuel in float chamber. Cleaned float chamber, problem solved.
Another rarity found and saved, well done. Maybe a theme for a future event, machines with their original trailers, Trusty, Barford, Merry Tiller, Monro Tiller etc.
I ploughed my plot a couple of weeks ago with the Barford Atom 30 a week later ran the Trusty Earthquake over it and yesterday gave it a final go with the Simar 56. Actual got a cheer from neighbour, when I finished, can’t think why!!! Ground was still a bit wet but with the season we have had a case of getting in before more rain. Even got some spuds planted.
Villiers parts are available from a number of suppliers eg Meetens, Villiers Parts. Whilst a new coil will be more expensive than a second hand one it should be certain to work whereas a second hand one will be of unknown reliability. From my own experience if replacing the coil I would replace the whole ignition system points and condenser.
