Hi, I have just joined the forum, i feel a bit of a fraud but has been suggested that i get in touch, I have purchased a DKW 159 Jet witha sachs 50cc engine, although its a sachs I have been told that it the RT variant as fitted in the MZ range, this may or not be right, if it is correct is there a repair agent in the midlands(England) who may be able to help. or is the MZ Simpson moped engine the same, any info greatly appreciated....sorry to hi jack your forum for a non MZ product.Thanks Paul

I wonder if that what the Simson 50 was based on? I seem to remember that the MZ two strokes were based on a DKW design.

No, Simson and Sachs are completely different engines.
