Agreed Grumpy,This may turn out to be quite valuable information. Unkie, I did notice the spacers on the 98cc Midget (402X) The most common mowers to use this spacer system at this height were The Villiers Villager" And Vampire" Mowers with the steel base,Not much else comes to mind with this height spacer system,This would be the closest I can come up with to verify its Fittment. As for the 2 other crank cases,Hopefully john can shed more light,But at quick glance they dont appear Aus made,and more likely earlier than your other two.
If its not to much trouble John,I have 2 engines that Im also interested in finding their origins.
The first is a 5G 266x with unmarked brass inlet,I assumed was of an Austral...
The second is of a Mk3 Midget 98cc 194X 14368,which I pulled of a Pope" of all things,But im sure was fitted to a Pace 1V98 or 2VR98 Special"Origionally. Would love to know as I have an Early Pace for Resto without its correct engine.If youve the time would you please be able to assist me in verifaction also? Would be greatly appreciated.
