All the dogs we got were rescues and they love rocking some flannel and spending time in the woods.

Is there a homelite air filter that would fit a 754 the one in here is pretty rough. I heard that some c5 parts work. I heard soaking it in dawn dish detergent after you blow it off with air compressor works. But would rather let the experts chime in on that.

I have 2 large frame Homelite saws and the air filter element sits on the air box ledge, the 754 air filter is actually a frocked cone screen which is held on the air horn of the carburetor by a spring. To my knowledge, 2 different types .

Thanks I seen that if you have the filter body/frame a sock can be pulled over and used as a filter?

Mister @Woodslasher and his socks! Haha.
You can get unifilter material of Amazon pretty cheap and some all ready in cone shape.

Yea I believe it was the slasher who said that in an old thread thanks guys!

Hey now! I said I saw a Wiz with a piece of a sock used as a filter, and I use socks as pre-filters on Green Weenies, I never said to use a sock as a filter! I get a fair bit of flack about my sock pre-filters, but when my 2100 rides in a wet truck bed or is out cutting in the rain my filter doesn't get covered in chunks of debris.

 

[Woodslasher]

I've seen a piece of a sock stretched over one of those to replace the missing flocking . Maybe you could do the same sort of thing with a green weenie a/f.

See, I knew I didn't tell anyone to use socks as filters!

 

[Brufab]

Hey don't get mad at me I thought that was pretty genius after I read it. I will post pics of what I come up with. Gonna try Thanksgiving weekend to see how far I get with it. Just don't see many come up for sale in real good condition. If it had a dog spike no paint would be worn off. Only paint missing is in the front where the tank/chassis was most likely rubbing against the log while bucking.

 

[Brufab]

Figures a guy as green as me on old saws would misinterpret that

 

[Woodslasher]

I'd measure the o.d. of the intake and find an UNI filter that matched that. Or, you could just get a generic green weenie, cut it down, and use a hose clamp to squish the end down to the correct size.

 

[Brufab]

Yea I seen those uni filters. Great idea! 10-15$ and your good to go

 

[Yukon Stihl]

I pull the muffler off any old saw before turning it over
i have pulled some real crap out of them,including a saw from the states that had a mud dubbers nest in it.

 

[Brufab]

Much appreciated Yukon stihl! Good advice. I'm gonna get a notebook and keep track of everything that I need to do and things I have done.

Any advice on how to remove the spark plug on the super 754? Thing is buried deep holy cow. Yes I did remove the rubber grommet but my lord an exorcism looks like a bare minimum requirement to even get started. Thanks guys!

Ah yes,the dreaded spartk plug removal,Lol.Remington had a special wrench that went with the saw for that purpose,but they get lost over ther yrs.What I've done is buy a 13/16 scrench & cut off the smaller end flush with the screwdriver part leaving just the screwdriver & the 13/16 socket part.It works great,but ya gotta play with it a bit to get ity on the plug.Then only loosen the plug & take the tool back off.

 

[Brufab]

Thanks I noticed the current plug cj6 is longer than the currently made cj6
Is this going to be a problem going forward or is the shorter plug easier to remove in the future?
