Description
Overview:
The Recoil Starter Bolt (Latest Type) is a genuine Villiers fastener for securing and maintaining the recoil starting mechanism on selected Villiers industrial engines, including the MK10/1 and MK12/1. Manufactured from durable steel for repeated use in demanding environments, it keeps the recoil assembly correctly located and running smoothly, aiding reliable pull-starts. Supplied as OEM No. EM2863, this is unused old stock from the original manufacturer and may show light tarnish or cosmetic marks from storage that do not affect function. Designed for the later pattern recoil starter arrangement used across the MK10 and MK12 families, it offers the correct fit and seating for dependable engagement. Ideal for servicing, refurbishing, or completing a missing fastener on vintage Villiers-powered equipment and plant.

- Unused old stock; minor storage tarnish is possible but purely cosmetic
Typical Applications:
