I saw it on Ebay/Craigslist

[Roanoker494]

I bought this saw off craigs list and really kinda like it. I would never use it for work, I just like the saw. With that being said, I tried to find other super 100 and can't get any pricing. Is my personal attachment for the saw clouding the true value? Thanks for your valued oppinion.

Acres site shows the saw to be 33cc, which means it automatically has no place in my collection. Doing a Google search I have found a few forum posts, from other forums, where folks have picked them up in the $25-$50 range. Be hard for me to pay $165 for a 33cc Dolmar when I could pick up two new Poulan 3314's for the same money, or 3+ used ones. But this is just my logic and I will admit that I do not buy saws smaller than 65cc, except for the Poulan 2150 I bought this morning for giggles.

Well maybe we should all start a giggles collection and create a demand for 33 cc saws you could fit more per acre

Is Acres site correct on that saw being 160cc? Holy cow......... Only issue with those very rare saws is they are built with very rare parts...... At least you are in the right country to be able to find parts, here in the USA I would be completely screwed on that one.

I was hoping Tim (Saw Dr.) would get that one. He recently got a 1001 that was missing some parts but had a good engine.

Theres parts if you know where to look but if the saws complete its worth a few shecles as is there are others but there not complete missing starters which are extremely hard to find.

And not a complete one amongst them thats why i buy complete saws only unless some-one has a definate need for something

what is one of these old dogs worth in decent running condition?

The Homelite EZ was a direct drive saw. It was the first DD saw to use the Tillotson HL series carb. The EZ6 was an updated version, and the Zip and 600D saws came after that (along with the Buz and 500 economy saws). Homelite gear drives of the EZ time period included the 17, 17L, 7-19, and 7-19C. Later came the Wiz series.

I just picked up a Homelite 7-19C and its direct drive!! Acres lists that model direct drive as well!! Was there some conversions done?

[watsonr]

I could only find an XL Auto Geardrive in that vintage, do you have a picture of said EZ?



On a different note: Your AS Name..................doesn't sawdust make you itch?.........LOL!!!

 

[watsonr]

Now I'm currious as to what you have.... the old EZ series were HEAVY and slow. The newer Super XL with the gear drive are kind of hard to find and i've been looking for one for awhile... that would be extra cool! Pictures??

I was on my smartphone, posting from my faulty memory. You are right. The 7-19 and 7-19C are DD. The 6-22 and 7-21 were gear drives of that time frame (along with a few more) that I should have said...

Jonathan there are two VERY different Homelite saw families that have "EZ" in their model name. What we are talking about here are the EZ and EZ6 (no hypen) 5.01ci/82cc saws of the late '50s.

The second is the later E-Z and Super E-Z (with hyphens) 34-41cc saw series from the late '60s through the '80s (that also included the XL-1 and the 250) like the Super E-Z that you sent me.

Aaron,
As per usual, your vast knowledge of saws never ceases to amaze me, though it often gives me a headache trying to follow along........LOL!!!
I saw the EZ 6 on Mike Acres site, but I think the OP's "Old Red EZ" confused my little insufficient knowledge.
Oh yeah I did send you one of those didn't I?

Chance to make a little scratch and burn some mix, I'd do it but I'm about 2hrs. away

Wanted: someone to cut this wood - $100 (Galion)

Sorry if you tried to call and got a wrong number - 419-689-2173

Needed: Someone with a chainsaw large enough to cut a tree into 4 or 5 sections.

The tree is on the ground and needs to be cut into 4 or 5 sections - I have someone that wants the wood or if you cut it and want the wood you can have it.

This is a very large tree so if you do not have a saw with around a 36" bar you will not be able to cut this (the tree is roughly 175" around)

If interested please call or texted me at 419-689-2173 or email me

The photos should give you an idea of how large the tree is

I believe the EZ6 is a little bigger than the EZ but they should look the same.

Love those twins! May well be wrong, but I think the EZ and EZ6 had the same displacement, but the EZ had a single reed where the EZ6 had the 4 petal cage. Carbs were different also. The EZ had one of the first HL Tillys on it. May well have been the very first saw to use 'em but can't say for sure. That's a landmark!
