I have been given an old Howard rotavator Trying to restore as a labour of love but Model obscure-Engine has Villiers Carb but engine is marked Wolverhampton Industrial Engines. Cant find out how to identity as this company went out of business in 2000(I think) Need spares etc so if anyone can help would be very grateful. If anyone knows of Howard experts would also help
