What do you want to know? There is more than one WX11 expert about.

Fuel mixture for a 1930ish and 1942 wx 11
thank you

64:1 or 32:1 depending on which WX11 it is. WATA and WB engines are generally 32:1. Iirc they say to run richer in oil if on light load or low RPM for extended periods of time.

Kev is on the Villiers FB group.

Hi Frank,
Suggest you start a new thread in New Projects/Restorations rather than tag onto a ten year old post.

You'll need a fair bit of luck.

Hi all.
I’ve just acquired a WX 11 engine, all be it, missing a hopper and fuel tank. So firstly I need help in finding these bits. I’ve tried E-Bay, but nothing yet. Any sites anybody know of?
Secondly, this is my first engine, to have a dabble with, is there anybody out there with a set of Operating and Servicing Instructions out there, to help me with?

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Hi BLODWIN68 ( of welsh extraction then ?) and a warm welcome to the forum.
As per my previous post to Frank - could I suggest you start a new thread in New Projects/Restorations rather than tag onto a ten year old post.
Good luck!
