Homelite Zip

[lawnmowertech37]

clutch springs i have 4 or more they are located on my store the above link in my other post what #s on the ipl is it ? for the carb parts

No carb parts in the IPL. It's a Tillotson HL series.

This is the carb top and screen I need. The top is often whitish. I also need the screw. I believe these are for any Tillotson HL series carb.

according to my ipl book i found the carb for your zip shows a homelite A57440 ok i went and looked cause i have a breakdown for all the carbs so the A57440 shows part # 55752 for the fuel strainer

and part # 55750 for the fuel pump cover

and them part #s are not tillotson #s they are the Homelite #s now that i have a picture to go by i will see if i can locate them in them 2 boxes i have not gone thru yet

Let me know what you find. Don't forget the screw for the carb.

I can get the Tillotson manual online, so no problem there.

Old iron runs again. This is likely the oldest saw I have. At least this model was introduced before any of the others. It's definately loud. My brother lives maybe a mile away, heard me making this video and called me up. And that's with me in the garage. The condensor did the trick. It starts, idles, and accelerates like a new saw. It just doesn't accelerate as high. The bar is actually a David Bradley and is in excellent condition after a little sanding and rail filing. Thanks to all of you guys who helped me out on this project, both with the saw itself and the parts.

Here's a little video clip for your Saturday night enjoyment.

They did. I just wish all 4 of the recoil screws had the same head.

Sounds like a champ! This was an excellent thread...Thanks Brad(rep coming)

If the site would let me rep ya, I would... Cool saw Brad!

Looks and sounds great Brad! Now, if someone would only find a condenser for my EZ, I could get it running.

Stop over at the GTG in Indiana next week and you can run it or my old gear drive David Bradley or SXL-925.

Brad, that is fabulous!! Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm not sure I actually believed that thing was going to come back to life. I'm seriously impressed.

There's a lot of "YEEHAA!" factor in that video!

So this was actually a challenge then? Kind of like, "I bet you can't make this thing run"? So what's next? Bring it on big boy!. Hey, you never did let me know what I owe you for shipping.

If aybody needs some parts for a zip, PM me. I have one that is complete. Minus the rear handle I cut off the case for a hotsaw and the recoil which is going to the same place. The rest of it is headed for the dump if no takers. No charge, just S+H.

Good job on the Zip. I see you figured out the throttle.
Also good to see you are able to work on the saws. I am still trying to find a good P & C for mine. Tom
