An advert from the 1960 C.G.A annual and price book.

Not really an old machine, from the 90's I think, but still perhaps of interest on here. I have a Ruggerini M150 twin cylinder diesel genset/welder with a problem, it white smokes very badly on one cylinder, I have swapped over injectors, pumps, cylinder heads, cylinders and pistons and it still smokes on the same cylinder each time, if I slacken each injector pipe off, the revs drop a bit, the same on each cylinder and still it smokes on the same cylinder, any ideas anyone please?

A couple if pictures of my Hayter Harrier, bought it last year off a guy who bought it new in 78, only needed a new carb diaphragm to get it running again, sadly it has to go, it is a very good mower but I just don't have the room for everything I've got.

In the 1982 Westwood catalogue the mower with the deck similar to mine has an 18 inch deck not 14 inch They also list a model called a Sabre and if it was you were thinking of Wristpin then yes it has an alloy deck.

I've just found some pictures of a Westwood I had a few years back and although the height adjustment and handle mount is different the deck looks to be the same or very similar

Hi, no nothing on the throttle control and it has just a normal single blade The wheels look the same as on some Hayteretes.

This number is on the crankcase of the engine, could it be a date, I haven't seen a number like this on a Briggs engine before.

I bought this a couple of weeks ago but no makers name and no engine cowling so cant date it either, it has a 14 inch cut, any ideas please ?

We use it to talk to my son who lives away at university

Similar idea and it looks a lot more stable

Nice collection you have there.

Yes I'm sure it's a Villiers.

Nice collection, I wish I had a shed big enough to hold that lot

It is a 24 inch cut, yes mine was made by Anzani. Yes the roller is split into 3, don't know why though

No, it has got a single rubber drive tyre but it is solid.

Its very unstable to use, you have to lean into a corner or it would chuck you off

Vlliers MK 25C 2 stroke engine

Dug this out of the back of my shed today, my Easimow I restored a couple of years ago, a bit of rust showing through again, painting is not my strong point.

A Raider 12 I think but the experts will tell you for sure

Picked up a few more accessories for my Multimot collection this morning. I already have the chainsaw and hedgecutter but very pleased to find a strimmer. Bought from the original owner who bought them new in 1985.
