Infomation on Wilesco

Does anyone know of a source or wedsite that dates Wilesco engines?  
I can find sites that sell current production but want info on out of production and dates.

Also you can email Wilesco directly about dating the engines, they are helpful.

It's true. Their isn't a site for Wilesco dates, yet.... Maybe someone on the forum will end up doing one. I did a thread on Wilesco mobiles and dates.

As said, your best bet is to send Wilesco your questions, save the answers and over time build your own little history. Then post it on here and we can all gain from your hard work and knowledge.

Al.. if you remember, I went through thias trying to ID the age of my D20.  I was able to at least narrow it down to what decade it is from.  I may be able to help narrow it, as will others here, especially Dampfzauberer.  He has been very helpful indeed!!

If it is an engine in particular, post a photo

I had meant to say, take a look at the pics I put up, you will see the difference between the D20 (1950s) and the D12 was made around 1960. (it was purchased new in 1961)
That may help you a bit, and as john pointed out, a picture would be good.
