Description
Overview:
This Connecting Rod Dipper is a genuine Villiers component for the Villiers BSA 65CC engine (OEM reference 87 312). Made from durable metal, it is designed to pick up oil from the crankcase and splash it across key moving parts, supporting the engine's splash-lubrication system. By helping to deliver oil to the big end, cylinder walls and other internal surfaces, it contributes to smoother running and reduced wear. Its form is compact and robust for reliable service inside the crankcase, and it is suitable for vintage rebuilds where original specification matters. Supplied as unused old stock, it may show minor tarnishing from storage but remains fully serviceable. Ideal for tradespeople, restorers and DIY users working on Villiers BSA 65CC engines in classic machinery.
Key Features:
- Genuine Villiers part for correct fit and function on the BSA 65CC engine
- OEM number 87 312 for straightforward identification during rebuilds
- Sturdy metal construction for long service life in splash-lubricated engines
- Supports proper oil distribution to reduce friction, wear and overheating
- Helps restore original lubrication performance in vintage engines
- Simple to fit using the engine's original fixings and procedures
- Unused old stock (NOS); cosmetic tarnish from age does not affect operation
- Reliable choice when authenticity and compatibility are important
Typical Applications:
Used during engine overhauls, repairs, or routine maintenance of Villiers BSA 65CC units to reinstate proper splash lubrication. Suitable for vintage machinery restorations and running repairs on small plant, stationary engines and older garden or light equipment that use this engine type. Helps maintain smooth operation where consistent oil delivery inside the crankcase is essential.
