Thanks yes you seem to have identified it , better pic attatched, any idea where I might get one and what is the adjustment necessary if any.
Also two bolts have come loose and lost the nuts, they go through the rocker arm, any idea of their spec as metric is my game and these are obviously imperial, and again any idea where I might get another couple of bolts and nuts, or maybe just nuts.
thanks.

Down in Cornwall we also try to get any small tractor and walk behind machine into the ring with the ring master giving a short description of the machine and owner.

No worries.
Are you allowed to advertise them on here?

Couldn’t agree more. I came to the same conclusion when visiting Newby Hall. My favourite show of the year is The Festival Of The Plough at High Burnham, Lincolnshire. Certainly does not have the number of exhibits that the mainstream shows have, but a large proportion of what is on display is actually running.
There’s nothing like the smell of two stroke exhaust first thing in the morning!!!

So sorry Felrose but there are some small minded people around this has really infuriated my family all my dad is trying to do is clear his yard .

[vhgmcbuddy]

I’m not going mad then!
I was the highest bidder as well.

Please note due to someone reporting my dad to a well known site all listings have been suspended until we get this sorted very sorry to put people out but this is beyond our control . the items will be available again within 5 days .
Kind regard’s

I removed the engine from te mower, and took some pictures.

The key seems to fit on the flywheel but not on the engine’s output shaft.
You can easily move it, it seems to small.
Is it a wrong key?

I have a spare Marquis but with a BSA engine, I could take that key if it fits.

“picture 1”: the keyway on the engine’s output shaft.
It doesn’t seem damaged to me.

“picture 2”: the key in the flywheel.

“picture 3”: the key with its sizes. 4,4mm x 4,4mm x 44,3mm,
if you look closely you’ll see it has a bit of damage of the screw

“picture 4”: the key on the engine’s output shaft.
It doesn’t fit for 100%, it is a little loose, easy to move.

“picture 5”: the flywheel cleaned.

Thank you,
