There is a wire in there, it’s a good idea to replace it as well. One member had a very frustrating time getting a spark until someone alerted him to the fact that it could be corroded as well – it was! It’s in the archive somewhere – I’ll have a look….

I’m closer to Lincolnshire than Charlie by 30 miles! Better get your postman to Geography class!

Hi Sten, E is the year, 1942, according to my info… It was made for paraffin, the small tank is for starting petrol, they made a petrol/paraffin version for Landmaster, my list says it should be a type 5. Normally my type number list goes up to 15, so a type 26 doesn’t appear…
The full list of types for 16H are as follows:-
16H type 2 – Landmaster, L150
16H type 5 – Landmaster, L150 (TVO fuel)
16H type 7 – Various, JAP Standard, (less governor)
16H type 8 – Jackaroo Go-kart (Villiers Nameplate)
16H type 9 – Landmaster, L150 (Rope Pulley Start)
16H type 10 – Various, Go-karts (JAP Standard, less governor)
16H type 11 – Various, (JAP Standard, horizontal C/shaft)
16H type 14 – Landmaster, L150 (Rope Start and Landmaster’s Fram air filter)
16H type 15 – Landmaster, L150 (Recoil Start and Landmaster’s Fram air filter)

All others were 16V, vertical crank for outboards….

My Autogardener has a throttle, but my Autoculto Junior hasn’t. I’v posted some pictures. 1st one is Russ Berry using his Autogardener, no throttle fitted, 2nd one is my Autogardener showing that the throttle pulls the governor rod, 3rd one is my Junior, with the carb removed, this shows the governor rod….

Try a caravan or trailer shop for the rubber boots, Bonser might have used standard parts….

Welcome to the forum, Rich, I’m sure there’s someone on here with a Hoemate that can help….
My photo shows Brian with his Spryte (2 stroke) engined BMB Hoemate. His mate had just got it going for him in 2012 at the Selwood Rally, Nr. Trowbridge, Wiltshire….
