After all the mud dobber nests and crud was removed
The tanks cleaned, it turns over, the rings and cylinder oiled
They are freed up, New plug, put a new fuel lines on it.
I cleaned behind the flywheel it got spark. It fired on prime.....
I am waiting on a carb kit.... in the process of cleaning
The tank this morning fuel got up to the carb, I pulled it over
If fired on its own. I put fuel lines and new filter on
And ran it...... gonna put the kit in , clean it more, and paint
It up. It runs and cuts now.....

Will you please do something with that sinful green on the bar?

Good job Coby!

That was the hard nose off my Lombard
I got from you it was on there to check the sprocket
I painted it green and had it on a 610 mac brick for a while
It was ugly.......

 

[67L36Driver]

Thinking ahead so you wouldn't get your shirt stuck in a sprocket nose.

 

[cobey]

Ya. I don't want my shirt near that bar
I ordered the decals for that saw last night
Gonna get some paint soon....... it won't be that green you like
Probably red and white

Guy I work with gave this to me a while back, said it was sitting in his shed the last twenty years and and I could have it for free. He thought it was an old poulan. I was pleasantly surprised when he handed this old 015l to me.

Dug this out of the garage today. Cleaned it up, put some gas in it, tightened up the chain, started in 3 pulls. Has been sitting for well over 10 years prior to now.

Took some pics for you guys, if you are interested in a video, I can see what i can do

It is a fairly rare Homelite XL 76

I got the old Titan Blue streak on monday, took most of it apart yesterday, and it fired up today!... the recoil spring had to get welded (who knows if that will last), but otherwise it looks OK...
I was wondering if any of them have automatic clutches? I can't find any manual clutch on it, just a cam lever to rotate the bar.

I've been able to anneal and reshape recoil springs using Blondie's gas stove. The anchor end. Not much luck on the pulley end. Hit or miss.

 

[Rx7man]

This recoil spring was broken about 1/3rd of the way out, so i didn't really want to recurve the whole works and end up too short... tried brazing it first but that didn't hold, it snapped at the end of the braze.

I had a hard time keeping the left cylinder firing, kept swapping out plugs and they'd run a bit and die... finally I found the plug wire was grounding out on a fin... will have to put a piece of hose over it or something. I'll work on getting a vid posted up once I have mufflers and a bar on it

The rewind springs on the old devils are often rusty and dirty. The rust pits are stress risers for the notch sensitive high carbon steel. I've had one explode into twenty short pieces.
