Homelite Chainsaws

Got one here somewhere. Good, solid saws.

Send me that Ebay 9-23, I have the top cover to go with it!

Neither of us won it. Actualy...................I kinda figured you did!:hmm3grin2orange:

I don't doubt you have the top cover for it. You also have the piston and cylinder for my 900D. Did you get that last 9-23/9-26 piston that was on feebay a couple of months ago?

I figured. Don't kick yourself too much. They come along from time to time. If if makes you feel any better.........................pistons and cylinders for those saws are rare and expensive (although a 9-23/9-26 slug did just sell on feebay a couple of weeks ago). You'd have bought a nice looking money pit if the saw needed internals. Having said that..................I'm not selling my 900D!!!

Yeah your probably right!!! Hopefully someone here got it. Come out where ever you are!!!

It took awhile for me to see the saws in this pic I guess I was to busy looking at the posters in the background!!!

they are loud and heavy. I love mine when it runs, every year I have to caress the diaphragms in the carb to make it run right because you can't find a rebuild kit for it, now it has developed a fuel leak.http://www.arboristsite.com/attachments/chainsaw/175428d1299639777-jim-saw-003-jpg

Thanks for the picture, have a chance to pick one up and was just wondering. I'm sure it would be a blast to run, slow ...buy hey I LOVE OLD HOMELITES!

It is not that slow for a saw made in 1958, plus try and get one to stall out in the cut, it might be possible but I haven't seen it yet. Once I figure out where my fuel leak is and fix it I will try and get a video of it cutting wood, maybe tomorrow. Oh yea did I mention it smokes like a VFW hall on bingo night.

 

[watsonr]

Thanks...no carb kits available? Someone could make a killing re-inventing that kind of stuff!

That is the cleanest 5-20 I have ever seen.

good save too, an hour away from a yellow saw pic.

 

[homelitejim]

Someone here has made a new set of diaphragms for this saw but I haven't heard how they work yet.

 

[RandyMac]

Brown carb?

Thanks, sometimes I get lucky. Any yellow saw pic of yours is worth looking at.:msp_thumbup:

Brown carb?

Nope, Tillotson HP15A

Nice saw.

 

[homelitejim]

Well I got another old Homelite put in the running category. Had to rebuild the carb, new fuel lines, clean the points, scavenge a few body parts of a Homelite Zip, now all I need is a loop of .404. Some pics and a video.
