Description
Overview:
This Petrol Tap is a genuine Villiers part designed to control fuel flow on lightweight four-stroke industrial engines. Built with a durable brass body for long service life, it screws into the tank or fuel bowl via a 1/8 BSP male thread (approx. 9.7 mm outside diameter) and connects to the fuel line with a 1/4" tail (6.35 mm). It provides a reliable manual on/off control to prevent flooding, ease maintenance, and improve safety when storing equipment. Suitable for classic Villiers engines, including the 505H and 507H, it is an ideal replacement where the original tap is worn or leaking. This vintage, unused old stock item may show minor tarnishing from age but remains fully serviceable and true to the original specification.
Key Features:
- Genuine Villiers part (OEM No. 27380) for assured fit and function
- 1/8 BSP male thread (approx. 9.7 mm OD) for standard Villiers tank ports
- 1/4" (6.35 mm) hose tail suits common small-bore fuel lines
- Robust brass construction for corrosion resistance and longevity
- Positive manual shut-off helps prevent leaks and carburettor flooding
- Compact, straightforward design for quick, simple installation with basic tools
- Reliable seal at the tank interface; suitable for everyday workshop use
- Unused vintage stock; minor cosmetic ageing does not affect performance
Typical Applications:
Used on static and mobile machinery powered by Villiers industrial engines, such as vintage mowers, rotavators, small generators, pumps, and light construction equipment. Ideal for restoring fuel control on older machines, replacing seized or leaking taps, and enabling safe fuel shut-off during maintenance, transport, or storage.
