Get the numbers off the carb after the C1Q and go to the Zama site to get the correct kit. I can't remember if the OD on the fuel / oil lines is 3/16" or 1/4" so measure the OD and ID on the lines that are in the saw now and match it. Tygon is good.

Ok. Carb is a C1Q H17A3XP. So I will look tonight on Zama's website. I need to get my calipers out and check the OD and ID on the oil seal so I can find a replacement.
And real Tygon will be labeled as such..., normally in white print on the line itself. Yeah, a little hard to see. F-4040-A is the typical fuel line part number regardless of diameter.

I actually purchased a blister pack of fuel line at the autoparts store a few years ago, that I believe was labeled as Tygon on the line but not on the package. I will need more than that though.
Thanks for all the help!!!

I get nitrile seals with the garter spring from a local bearing shop. Generally around 4 bucks each in the chainsaw sizes. Double lip is unimportant regardless of what you hear on this site. Single lip was the standard way back when and the saws lasted.
I use this link to search seals by size and then design. http://www2.chicago-rawhide.com/popup_parts_lookup_457010.htm

Bet you're thinking the same as me, chainsawlady, eh? I just bought one of her NOS Big Red bars, very nice. She has more. Lots of other NOS HOMELITE bars too.

900 series with anti vibe. I have a VI922 77 cc instead of 82. I like mine. Don't run it often.
I believe the 944 has a points ignition (bonus) and the 955 is electronic. I think my 922 is elect

no blue coil is good news. +1 on points.
Yep.
Yes member here and on HOH. PM her for a bar.
I stopped by to see Joyce a couple of weeks ago to pick up some remaining McCulloch recoils springs she found. She also sent me home with two boxes full of Power Equipment Trade magazines in Homelite boxes.
If anyone is coming to the Iowa GTG in April I would be happy to hand the boxes off to someone that would appreciate them. If I can find the photos I'll post them for you to enjoy.

Are the oil line and fuel line supposed to have different OD and ID? There was a ~0.2 difference between both the OD and ID. I was expecting them to be the same line.
Also, I found scoring on the piston and cylinder. I had noticed marks but felt the piston today. Definitely scored. Funny though, it starts just below the ring and stops before the piston skirt. I see a mark in the cylinder too but didn't have time to check for transfer.
