Villiers Mk12/2 will probably need points cleaning to get a spark. Magneto can suffer from failed coil or condensor. Carb will also need a good clean out.

Welcome. As far as I know Villiersparts are still going, they have items on a well known online auction site. Another good source of Villiers parts is Meetens (not cheap) I have also just found L & S Engineers not used them yet though.
