Description
Overview:
The Carb Top Body is a genuine Villiers OEM component for vintage Villiers carburettors fitted to C30, C45 and B1320 engines. It forms the upper section of the carburettor body, helping to seal and stabilise the air-fuel pathway for reliable running. Manufactured from durable cast alloy (typically aluminium), it resists heat and corrosion in everyday use. As unused old stock, it offers an authentic, period-correct replacement to maintain originality and performance, with possible light tarnishing from age. Suitable for classic stationary engines often found on mowers, rotavators and small plant, this top body restores proper carburation and supports consistent starting, idling and throttle response on Villiers C30 and C45 units.
