Description
Overview:
This Kick Start Pulley is a genuine Villiers component for the starting drive on classic Villiers petrol engines. It is a single 'V' pulley with a 60.3 mm (2 3/8 in) outside diameter, built from durable metal for long service life. Designed to transmit drive to the starter system, it helps deliver smooth, reliable cranking of the engine. The pulley suits machinery powered by Villiers MK10 and MK12 engines (and others in the same family), commonly found on older garden and light construction equipment. Supplied as unused vintage old stock, it may show tarnishing or cosmetic ageing, but remains fully serviceable. As OEM reference EM1218, it offers a direct-fit replacement that preserves original performance and alignment on Villiers starting assemblies.
Key Features:
- Genuine Villiers part for assured compatibility and fit on MK10, MK12, MK15 engines
- Single 'V' groove accepts a standard V-belt for belt-driven starting systems
- 60.3 mm (2 3/8 in) diameter maintains correct drive ratio and engagement
- Sturdy metal construction for strength, wear resistance, and long life
- Direct replacement under OEM No. EM1218; no modifications typically required
- Balanced, true-running design for smooth rotation and consistent starting
- Unused old stock: may show cosmetic ageing that does not affect function

- Suitable for preventative maintenance, overhaul, or period-correct restoration
Typical Applications:
Used on vintage machinery powered by Villiers MK series engines, including classic cultivators/rotavators, lawn mowers, small generators, water pumps, and light plant such as compact cement mixers and rollers. Ideal for servicing, rebuilding, or preserving authentic operation where a belt-driven starter pulley is required on Villiers engines.
