I think maybe fuel shut off valves. Fuel taps works for me though.

I suspect there is an "O" ring or two in there that needs to be replaced. That's what I've found on the ones on mowers and snow blowers anyway. There may be packing in one that old though. I've replaced packing with "O" rings and it worked.

Yes ill have a look and see, Havent taken it out yet, seeing if i can find the info first, just in case i cant get the parts i need here in australia
 
Hi Guy im looking for the plate that goes under the carby on the Mobilco Workmate or Matchless
It bolts to the side of the housing and goes under the carby
You can see the 2 bolt holes where it bolts to and goes under the carb
So if any one has one they want to get rid of please let me know
Regards Peter
 
Hey everyone! Went through the carb on my Homelite 17. It runs but was hoping someone here has the factory recommended settings. Anything on the air driven governor too.

Thanks
 
How about a homelite zip? Grandpa had one years ago now dad wants one. Local saw shop has one in a back corner. Fair price? Specs? Anyone got info?
