Villiersparts.co.uk came at the business from the stationary engines side, so may be able to help with identifying the mark from the engine numbers, and are more likely to have rings etc than the Villiers motorcycle engine specialists. Also Meetens near Preston, are garden machinery people, but can be traced back to a big Motorcycle dealers in London, and are apparently very knowledgeable about Villiers stuff.
