First off, I got one of the Super 1050's going today!! WOOO HOOO!!!! That thing sounds like a dirt bike! Not to mention the compression ???? near rips your fingers off when you try and start it! ;;
It actually runs fairly decent with the carb the way it is, just squirted some fresh mix gas to help it out, and she fired right up But I found a guy on ebay who has a bunch of NOS carb kits for the 1050 so I think I'll rebuild them all!
I had to free up the points to get spark but it's got a great snap to it now. And the darn pull cord came out on the last crank so I have to rewind it. But she runs like a dream!
I'm going to upload some pics so you can see a few of them. Keep in mind they have been sitting a while and are dusty, I need to clean them up a bit but the paint is pretty good for the age.
Here's a list of what I have:
5 Homelite 410's (4 complete, 1 apears to have been droped and missing a few parts) All have compression, haven't checked for spark yet.
4 Homelite Super 1050's (3 complete, 1 appears to be missing the carb but I think I saw it with some of the other misc. stuff....1 has already been started!) (Also, I think they ripped me off on the 1050's, I swear I saw 5 or 6 but when I went back on the second trip to pick the rest up that was all that was left All have hella compression, 1 has spark and the others don't...yet!
5 Homelite 360's (all look complete, some were already started taking them apart but don't appear to be missing any pieces). Some of these have tags saying needs carb rebuilt, and 1 or 2 say the pull cords need to be restrung. All have compression but haven't checked for spark yet.
They rest of the pallet were misc chain saws, a few poulan's, 2 macs, and some other misc parts.
I'll be getting the rest up and running in the days to come. If you're interested in any of them let me know, when I do get them all going they'll be needing a new home! I do have an ebay account if you guys would prefer buying one through them. Feel free to email me so we can discuss it.
The pics in this post is of the 3 Super 1050's in stroage, the one I got running is here at my house, when I have time I'll take pics of it and post it up. I would do it now but the batteries in my digital camera are dead >_<
Regards,
Rick
