European and Other Bikes / Re: Terrot MT 1, 100cc 2 stroke: non-starter!

I have a 1948 Terrot M347 which I restored some 18 years ago. I am sure that at that time, I managed to get hold of all the seals & bearings in the UK just from the part numbers on them. I would think that your engine is essentially the same as mine. The oil to fuel mixture for my engine is 8 to 1 from the original manual, so it might be worth trying that. Get ready for the smokescreen though!

Thank you to all who have contributed to this post. Apart from the bike manufacturer, which it appears that I may never know, all my questions have been answered. Particular thanks to 33d6 for your knowledge.

Thanks for all the information. This was my first posting on the forum & it is great to get such an informative reply. You say that it is a 3 speed gearbox on this engine. Whilst trawling through the internet before I posted my question, I am sure that I read somewhere that the letter 'D' suffix denoted that the gearbox is a 4 speed. I take it that this is wrong.

Hi, can anyone help me identify this Villiers engine that I recently acquired fitted into a Triumph Tiger Cub frame. The serial number is 996/1 7221D. I understand that the three number prefix relates to the bike manufacturer. Does anyone know which company this applies to. Many thanks.
