Nervor 175cc engine
Hi, I have a nervor 175 cc engine totally dismantled
The motor has a 62mm bore with a 57.5 mm stroke. The engine number is 4386. The unit is off a 1955 Magnat Debon
I need exploded view diagrams of this motor to allow me to rebuild it.
Hoping you can help
Regards Dave Jones The following PDF has diagrams of the Nervor 125 from 1952 - I imagine it will be very similar. Ed.
