Villiers stationary engine start and tune - Australian 12/2 classic

[@Xynudu]

Sold the Villiers and it's now on a concrete mixer, doing what it does best. These are the best motor you can get for the job. Will slug away for countless hours and ask for more. Oz icon. Cheers Rob.

[@garryw1159]

Thanks for the video. I just bought a cement mixer with the 12/2 motor on it . at the moment it sounds like a putt putt motor so ill have a go at tuning it. Cheer Garry

[@seanmurphy1823]

Perfect vid, just got an old one on a cement mixer I picked up.. Thank you very much

[@Xynudu]

Glad it helped.

[@ShuffleSk8Ter]

great little motor!

[@andydickson6085]

You were running it with the choke on.

[@Xynudu]

No.

[@Martin.Humphreys]

@@Xynudu On mine, which is the same as this, on my F15and on my villiers lightweight, all of which have the same carb, choke horizontal is on and vertical off. How is yours different ? To start usually have the lever at 45 degree and move to vertical when warmed up.

Hi there great vid. Just starting work on my Dad's old Villier engine to get it running thinking 40's 50's era. I'm 1974 so well before my time it looks to be 4 stroke aswell has oil sump cap same spot. I'm missing fuel tank cap but it's not a screw on type it's like a radiator cap. Wondering if could give info on anyone or a place to buy a fuel cap. Cheers thanks

[@Xynudu]

Hi Patrick, Maybe try Ebay or put a wanted add on Gumtree. Apart from that you are looking at scrap/junk yard motors. Also try this guy: vaces.com.au/photos/villiers-parts/ Cheers Rob

[@not2fast4u2c]

A Nice old engine to put on a homemade scooter

[@bigred8438]

Great little motor. Do you have any old petrol tanks still laying around you might like to part with?

[@theNEWTful]

I don't think mine has the main mixture screw.....it's missing, but oddly it still runs

[@SuperDouginator]

Does it have a level adjuster in the float chamber ?

[@roberthdavies]

robert davies,can anybody tell me where i can buy a new exhaust for this motor ,ihave the same model.

[@michelebeck4311]

1.95 b.h.p@3,400r.p.m 120cc urs has the b.10 type carb.

[@jacquesblaque7728]

Looks just like a Briggs or Tecumseh. Sounds like, also. Is it reduction-geared?

[@Xynudu]

+Jacques Blaque No reduction gearing. All those flat head motors pretty much used the same design pattern. Basic low tech solid motors. Although some of the later B&S stuff wasn't so good. Cheers Rob

[@AussieRust]

Do you know we're I can get a oil bath filter like yours

[@Xynudu]

Assuming you are in Australia, try here: vaces.com.au/photos/villiers-parts/ There are similar sites in the UK. Google is your friend.

[@AussieRust]

@@Xynudu thanks

[@shrikantapail3314]

what is cause of vijay villiers water pump run few minute after stop ? pls tell me sir

[@Xynudu]

Could be many things. When stopped after run check spark. If spark OK then must be fuel issue.

[@AlexBRestoration]

Hi anyone knows if where is the carburetor jar is a filter in there or it's just oil?

[@Xynudu]

It should have a filter in there as well. If it's missing you could probably use some coarse steel wool. That was the method used in early oil bath air filters (as used by Volkswagen Beetle etc).

[@AlexBRestoration]

@@Xynudu thank you,I both original filter with 10 pounds

[@mindofown]

Brilliant Thanx, just normal 91 octane unleaded?

[@Xynudu]

Yes, but you will need to add a valve seat lube to protect them, as they are not hardened for unleaded fuel. These motors were made for leaded petrol. Cheers Rob

[@mindofown]

Thanx Rob, does higher octane unleaded help? And also mine keeps stalling, starts up runs for a minute then stalls? any ideas? Mines same model as yours.

[@Xynudu]

Higher octane won't help. These are low compression engines. Sounds like a fuel problem. Check fuel flow from tank, clean out carby float bowl, make sure float level is high enough, blow out needle and seat, blow out main jet and mixture jet, adjust mixture jet (richen it up) , make sure carby is mounted with no gasket air leaks, check air filter is not blocked.. The oil bath plastic air filter bowl can distort with age, so try running it with that off to test it's getting enough air. The basic stuff. Cheers Rob

[@mindofown]

thanx heaps Rob

[@SainulabidPothangodan]

Hello sir, my mk12 is having a intermediate thud and black smoke. Any fix??

[@michelebeck4311]

Sainulabid Pothangodan check the timing. The fly wheel doesnt have key, just a tapered shaft. Take head off top dead center with valves closed, line fly wheel marks up
