A 14" bar is just about right for the Super 2. It's possible to buy a longer bar but it cuts down the power. I think I have a 20" bar that will fit on a Super 2, I think it came off a 240 or 245 Homelite saw but I never have put it on a saw.
Check out my old Homelite XL

Yup, just look up by model name, not number. Easy peasy.

The Oregon mount code for those bars is A061. They are distinctive, having a square/block shaped cutout at the front of the open stud slot.

Yeah, I don't know how many bars I've filed that little square out of when I didn't have a Homelite bar handy...The Oregon mount code for those bars is A061. They are distinctive, having a square/block shaped cutout at the front of the open stud slot.

Ok on the Oregon parts site the ut10618 "XL" doesn't show up any help here?

You using their bar/chain selector utility? Try another model in the series. XL2, Super2, Bandit, etc. As long as the bar as the A061 or T061 mount code you're golden.

Ok so I see a series of xl's listed 10,12,14,16,18 like XL-14 is that based off the original bar?

No. The original Homelite 'XL' model was the XL-12. Totally different saw than what's been discussed in this thread. The '12' was a reference to the saw's claimed 12 pound dry weight (PHO).
Homelite has used 'XL' for several different (and unrelated) saw families over the decades. XL-12 series, XL-101 series, XL-1 (E-Z) series, XL-700/800/900 series, XL/XL2/Super2/etc series, etc. The numbers rarely had any relation to any aspect/characteristic of the saws....

I know this thread is old but it pertains to my situation so perfectly I couldn’t resist reviving it.
I have (I believe) the same saw as the OP and I am having trouble getting it to run.
I can get it to fire up on full joke and it will run for 30 seconds or so then die. I cleaned the entire carb and put on a fresh air filter.
After it dies I have to rechoke it and pull a half dozen times or so then it will fire again and run for 30 seconds or so.
The only thing I can think of is the fact that I don’t have a chain on it current so maybe there isn’t enough “load” on the motor?
Would you expect this saw to run normally without a chain on?
Here are some pics for giggles.

Duck bill valve in the fuel tank is probably mush
It would run fine without a bar and chain on it. More likely a fuel related issue,anything from a bad /damaged fuel line, tank filter, impulse passage or interior carb problem. Did you replace all the inner carb parts?
