Hi I have a question about how to remove the carb on an HC Pioneer to put in a kit. The carb seems to be positioned tightly in the rear handle assembly. Looks like I would need to remove the assembly to get the carb out or is there a special trick here? Any help wouldbe appreaciated. I have the part diagram Thanks John

I believe the whole handle comes off with the carburetor attached and is only held to the rest of the saw with 4 studs/nuts. Its been a while since I had mine torn apart. The carb is a standard tillotson HL, so the kit you need is an RK-88HL, which should be available pretty much anywhere. There ought to be a rubber boot between the carb and the body of the handle, it should be removed in order to slide the carb off the studs for removal.

Best of luck. Here is mine

I saw the cannon bar on Craigslist, but I didn't know what it fit so I passed on it. Looks like that was a bad decision.... hahaha. glad you and cookie got it all.
If you or anyone is Intrested in some of that stuff let me know. I’ll pass it along for a reasonable price to people that can appreciate it.

I assume the bars are all Pioneer mount? If so, how long are the 2 shorter ones? I'm thinking the grey one would be a good fit for one of my Farmsaws.

Job done by removing tank and rear handle. Unfortunately the saw has lost spark so a test run will need to wait. Could be due to degreasing and hosing with water so will see after drying out otherwise will check connections etc

Thanks for this. Your HC has been restored to a high standard! Will see if I can post some pics of my HC and others including an RA, 600 620 and 650.
