Hello This is my first post here so plese be patiant. I have bought a Villiers Mk10 air-cooled engine from an aution and am now trying to gather enough info to overhall it get it running. I have found the Winget company site and downloaded the manuals they have available here but as there are two editons for different years I now need to know how old my engine might be. Is it possible to tell from the serial number? The maker's plate says Villiers Mk10 No 851/148562D The engine is not fitted to any equipment but might have been used on a farm elivator or simmilar.

Finally, does anyone know if Villiers Industrial are still in bussiness and, if so, what their contact details are? Thanks very much for any help.
