Overview:
This genuine Villiers wing nut is a small but important fastener used on V Type carburettors fitted to classic Villiers engines. Made from durable metal, it allows secure hand tightening without tools and helps keep carburettor components firmly in place under vibration. It is designed as a direct replacement to OEM No. EM1868, ensuring correct fit and reliable operation on engines such as the MK10 and MK15. Suitable for maintenance and restoration of vintage machinery, it supports consistent engine performance by holding covers and fittings where precise, repeatable clamping is required. As an unused old-stock item, visual ageing such as light tarnish may be present, but function and fit remain to original specification. Ideal for tradespeople, DIY users, and collectors working on Villiers-powered equipment.
