Red saw Homelite ID help

[Work Saw Collector]

This saw showed up early this morning missing top cover and all stickers/badges. I was hoping for 2100 but the spark plug cover isn't right for a 2100. under side of saw says 64837/ 01

Acres site most of the bigger saws don't have pictures to go off of.

That's 'cause they scare the camera.

Which carb does it have?

You're close.... its a 2000. Take a look at the piston. If it has a single ring at the very top of the cylinder, then it'd be a Super 2000. Two conventional rings, then plain 2000. Same displacement as a 2100, just had a different flywheel and ignition system and they changed the starter cover and plug cover access plates. There's other internal differences, but that's about it from the outside. Nice saw!

Go 7ci.

I'm headed out to the shop and see if I can get it busted off owner says it runs.

 

[RandyMac]

Get some spikes on that thing, it looks a bit chinless.

The 2000 is a nice saw. Well done. The fact that your saw has its rear cylinder shroud intact is amazing! I am yet to come across a 2000 which still has this cover. Both of my saws are missing theirs, and I have never seen a cover come up for sale in the usual places. Still looking though!

Congrats on a real powerhouse there - top cover will be easy to get hold of.

Regards,

Chris.

Update: The saw will run on a prime so needs a kit and fuel line. I checked the compression 185# :msp_ohmy: I am happy with it. Just going to need a few parts.

I forgot to add the saw now wears the big starter handle.

I made a short video its uploading now, might take an hour. The saw is running now. I still got to hunt down an air filter and cover bucking spike maybe a clutch it pulls the chain all the time. I haven't checked that out yet. I just wanted to get a video of it.


Edit: Still waiting for the upload I have restarted it twice.

Edit: still uploading have restarted four times.
