G'day cobja

The Mark 3 engine details are here https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/u...s-mk-2-mk-3-midgets-operating-parts.html

I haven't seen that 147X number in my Villiers numbers lists.


Cheers

Hi cobja

Yes my mistake I just looked at the cowl and fuel tank ,yes it's the 25c motor.The bolt in the top of the cylinder is a give away.

https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/54293/question-on-supercut-mower.html

Parts lists and manuals for the 25C are easily found by Googling Villiers 25C manual.


Cheers
Max.

Hello Max and cobja
The 147X54 does appear in a Villiers doc I have.
It was not assigned to an OEM - meaning, maybe, it was a
general Villiers 25C spec. for Australia.

Hope this helps.
