- What on earth has the changing of a cultivator engine to do with The Sand Martin Trust? The number of visitors to our channel is important to us, and our Adviser noticed that visitors to Merry Tiller videos far exceeded those to our own Sand Martin ones. Having tried to find a video of just such an engine change, unsuccessfully, he decided that it would be interesting to see how the numbers compared when one was placed on our channel.

Nice one i'm an ecologist and an enthusiastic amateur mechanic; Very interesting indeed. Thanks
i just brought a 5.5 hp from china for my merry tiller the old brigs was just a pain to start good show thanks.the new engine has a bigger footprint i just drilled a new set. i paid 100 dollars for the engine in Australia delivered to my door.my pulley was seized on i cut the shaft of punched it through , the pulley is worth more to me than the old engine.
I notice that most engines come with a 2Omm drive shaft but I think the Merry Tiller Pulley is only 19mm so how will bigger shaft fit into a smaller hole? Or is the pulley hole actually 20mm+ ?
Thanks very much for the interesting (and entertaining) Video, I now am more knowledgeable on engine changing and sand martins. Best of luck with the trust.
When i was a youngster, i used to see them near home, making their nests along a sand cliff on the banks of the local river. You just brought back some beautiful memories. Thank You.
BeeCee12 I'm very pleased to have brought back the memories for you, and that the idea behind the video seems to have been sound.
With it being so old will it need an A/F Hexagonal wrench key to get the pulley off? UPDATE....I got it off using a 3mm but had to remove the end bit that is bolted onto the centre thread ,(what ever that does but suspect it used to have a reverse action and it was part of that) then I could get at the second grub screw. A bit of leverage from a metal wedge and the pulley came off which has a 3/4 or 19mm hole and about 2 inches or 50mm diameter. As you won't need the handle throttle it's easier to remove it at the handle and then it can stay with the old Briggs and Stratton engine.
What is the name/number or designation of the engine you use for the replacement?
Villiers G200 6.5 hp.
I can't find the right bolt size and thread for the q shaft for this engine do you have any ideas what it could be? Mine didn't come with one
I used the bolt from the engine that I replaced. I'm sorry but I don't know the thread size. Seller might. Otherwise can't help.
On the engine used as the replacement it uses a 9/16" - 24UNF-2B TAP in the centre threaded portion. Also the shaft on the replacement engine is a Q shaft, (Parallel shaft), which is 2" and 19/64" or 58.5mm long and approx 19mm diameter up to -0.025 tolerance (just under 3/4 of an inch)
