Post by Made in England Tue Oct 04 2022, 20:40

I recently bought a Villiers W-X11 which not only had a non-standard hopper but had been converted to coil/battery ignition.
I would like to return this engine to standard spec.
The Magneto back plate is completely bare apart from the points assembly so I'm looking for the coil and laminated "pole pieces" like those shown in the picture.

If anybody could help with these items, a standard round hopper and fuel tank I would be most grateful.

Many thanks.

Too small that one.

@ Made in England. Is it a WAH or a WAT you have?

Thanks Mattblack but as StuartTurnerSteve says it's too small.

Steve, it's a WAHA.

Thanks both for your input!

Ah ok. I'd probably run it as tank cooled as hopped don't rock up too often.

Yes, I think that may well happen but I'm keener to sort out the ignition at the moment, if I can get the magneto working as it should I can decide on cooling afterwards.

Many thanks for that Garak, probably a bit more expensive than I can afford (justify?) at the moment, perhaps I'll give them a ring to see if they can help with parts though.

They do also supply all of the parts as long as you know what is faulty.

It's not a matter of faulty parts, the laminated "pole pieces" and coil are missing, I am aware that they sell coils but they're not much good if I don't have the pole pieces.

Thanks for your replies.

Thanks for that StuartTurnerSteve, I've been searching ebay for parts but didn't find this, I guess you have to know what other engines share these parts.
I think this may be the way to go!

I'm pretty sure the Ruston PB6 and WX11 mags are the same. I've had both and not noticed any differences. But wouldn't want to be held to that.....
