Well the ole Homelite 360 shot craps on me yesterday. My father was using it
I had stepped into the garage for a file, he was splitting a rather large piece
of maple. From inside I could tell he wasnt in the wood good with it and before
I could get out to stop him at about 14,000rpm she let go.....or should I say
stopped....
I tried to pull it over but it was locked up, let it set to cool down then it would pull over but no compression. I took the muffler off and the top of the piston down to the first ring is scoured bad.

So I will be in the market for at least a new piston,rings and gaskets so if anybody as an extra sitting around please let me know.

I have to fix it up, my father sold for Homelite (factory) for 40 years and it was the last saw he sold when he retired
