There was also a problem with the contact link not sending e mail to club account, which is why there was no reply to the original question.

I have a 38 page Mechanics Handbook for Kirby Lauson 4 stroke engines,it will take a while to scan the entire book. Let me know if you would like a copy (pdf file).

I have an early Hayterette with Villiers 7F two stroke engine and the deck is unpainted.

Could you show a diagram or photo of the setup as it is so we can see how shaft, bearing thrust washer and gears are arranged at present.

Any good garden machinery repair shop or motor factors should be able to supply the correct spark plug so long as you know what it should be, take old one as sample. What is the engine Briggs & Stratton?

[charlie]

Since my previous post I have found a parts list and now know what the part looks like. It might be worth taking the remains of the old one to a bearing supplier to see if they have anything, alternatively a small engineering company should be able to make one.

Richard, have you tried contacting Hayter to see if they have any information? Like you I have not heard of a Clinton engine fitted to Hayter. Does the mower have any identifying marks? If you could post a photo it would help (see help and information section of forum for notes on adding photos).

[charlie]

What is it you need, without a parts list the number does not mean a lot.

Sadly Cox & Turner are snowed under with work and are not taking on new work outside their core activities. They do have a huge stock of piston rings and can make rings if required.

Ouch, glad I didn’t go to the sale that is way beyond my funds, but does reflect it’s rarity. Wonder if it will ever be seen on the rally field?

Not sure if this is any help illustration from parts list for model 80 engine, I dont have an illustrated list for the 34.

Peter, if you send your e mail address to club e mail account (vhgmc@btinternet.com) I will pick it up and send copy of manual, the most useful part of the manual for a strip down is the parts list.
