I need to know the engine number etc of a Ransomes Mk 6 Minor Villiers Engine circa 1952 as it needs new bearings.

The handbook does not give this detail.Can anybody help?

I'm not a Villiers expert but here's two suggestions.

I believe that the two crankcase halves will have numbers stamped into them - they may mean something to someone.

Get those numbers and then talk to Paul at Meetens.

Thanks for that. Done that and I was told at Meetens they only do commercial mowers this week?

Very strange!

Leave it till Monday then try again - certainly sounds odd to me.
