Hi,

I'm wondering how to check the oil level on a Villiers F12 engine. Should you fill all the way up to where the threads start? Or is there any marking?

Thought I’d answered , but may be not!
Anyway, they crop up on eBay . Mine was a gift from the old Meetens Company in Wimbledon in about 1970. Says ten shillings and sixpence !

There is a version of the F12 manual available on this site. Look in the Preserve section Engine Manuals.
