“I suspect if your engine does not start it has lost its spark due to standing / not used for a long time ??.If this is the case then the flywheel will need removing to access to the magneto (contact breakers and condensor).You really need a proper removal tool for this flywheel.Do NOT hit the flywheel or the end of the crankshaft with a hammer in an attempt to remove it !!.I used one of my flywheel removal tools and it was very tight on the taper !!.
The carburettor would need a thorough cleaning too i suspect.Where are you located as i could get it running for you.”

I’ve given the carburettor a good cleaning but still not running. When you say that the “flywheel will need removing to access to the magneto (contact breakers and condensor)”….what do you mean I need to do once I acess teh magneto? Sorry to be a pain. Thank you.

Hi Charlie, if its a 324 series the model is a cadet according to a parts book I have, I can give you the part numbers you need if that’s any help.

That’s good for price, the last time I used chains was on my ford 100E. Just a thought are they as good for front wheel drive cars, I remember they use to flap around a bit. Hopefully in Devon I won’t need them.

In view of it’s history it hasn’t had much work for years, saw bench wouldn’t be to taxing. I presume it’s got the BMC diesel engine, I think the early ones had a Perkins engine. when you take it for a run don’t be afraid to rev it, in other words give it a blow out.
