Description
Overview:
The Villiers fuel tank strap EM542 is a genuine replacement part used to secure the fuel tank to the engine on selected Villiers stationary engines. Made from durable formed metal, it clamps the tank firmly to maintain correct position under vibration and general use, helping to protect pipework and fittings. It is intended for classic Villiers engines such as the C12 and MK10 and is suitable for ongoing maintenance or restoration where the original strap is missing, worn, or corroded. As unused old stock, the strap may show light tarnishing from storage, which does not affect performance. Supplied as a single strap for direct replacement, it restores safe, reliable tank retention on vintage Villiers-powered machinery.

- Genuine Villiers part (EM542) for a correct fit on listed engines

Typical Applications:
