That may be how I did previous ones but so long ago. This one has the rubber handle wrap do may have to loose that. Thanks for the tip appreciate that.
Here's something weird. One of my 990Ds has the hole in the shroud for ignition switch and has the tag on it. Go figure.
Thanks Tim worked a treat have ordered carb kits. Now just need to find the carb gasket which broke as I took it off.
If you have some gasket material I can send you a pdf file that you can print at 100% to use as a template to make one.
I do have gasket material, would appreciate the pdf, super thanks
Depending on how old the HDC is, it may have the additional impulse port that is fed through an index in the throttle shaft. If so, the gasket will have to be larger in that area and have that hole as well. I know I have blocked off a couple accidentally when making new gaskets and/or left them partially open with a smaller kit gasket.

Im not much of a Homelite guy,, but I have a couple. Traded a few non-runners for this almost runner. New intake boot and she runs great.
Also have this ugly thing, but it does run.
And I have a few dual trigger saws that aren't worth posting.

Attached Lee. XL-1 gasket is the same as the Super mini.
I've never seen the open passage that Cory (hoggwood) is talking about but if you see an additional passage at the front of the carb face, cut the gasket to cover it.
I print the page at 100% (make sire it fits right at that print size) and cut the printed template out and tape it over a piece of gasket material a little larger than the template. Cover the whole template and overhang on the gasket material with Scotch tape.
Cut / punch all the internal holes and and then cut the out line with scissors. The template will then fall off and you have the gasket.
Got it thanks, looks good! yes we are safe and well, hoping you guys are too.
While looking for a NEW oiler diaphragm for a 330. NOS doesn't mean New Old Stock anymore. It means USED.

I hope that solves the problem.
I've checked and blew out all passages, installed new hoses and tried lighter weight oil. Even vegetable oil. Not a drop yet.
I've taken the saw apart 4 times. Even the jug twice. I'm getting really fast at it.
I've had it with this junker.
I have 2 really nice ones that I've restored.

Initial priming can take awhile on some saws even if everything is new and working correctly. May want to just let it sit and idle a bit with no bar and chain and see if that's the case with yours.
That's what I did more than once. Had the bar and cover off. Let it set for 10 to 15 minutes idling. Not a drop.
I even disconnected the oil line from the tank to the pump and let the hose fill before I reconnected it.
