I figured as much, probably missing some # on the side of the saw. Just wanted to make sure there was not a rare Canadian model.

There I fixed it for you. For 50 you would be a nut not to pick it up!

So after no responses to my question 4 pages ago about a 3100g...I'm gonna try a different question.
I usually run a Stihl 048 (1980s saw...77cc's) in addition to my Homelite EZ-Auto. I love the Homelite and want to get something that looks like my EZ-AUTO's bigger cousin....who can b!t(h slap the Stihl 048. I once thought the 048 was a bad saw, but now that I'm almost 30...I WANT MORE POWER!
Can someone give me a list of the homelites that will do this and maybe some info about their availability. I have had no luck finding the 3100g I want.

The homelite 750 should do the trick, I don't think you will be disappointed with the power. If you want to look up chainsaw specs check out. Chain Saw Collectors Corner Home
I have nothing to do with this web site I just use it as a reference when I need specs.

The 925 kinda looks like a ez but its only 80 somthing cc and probably not gonna stomp that 048. I know these are pretty easy to find.
Yup the 750 would spank most saws.
This isnt my video but the saw is nice:YouTube - Homelite 750 with 50 inch bar

Don't discount the 1020, 1050, 1130, all are 100cc and a little easier to find.
Here is my XL12 with the wick in the tank. A copper line is attached to a fitting screwed into the bottom side of the fuel tank - behind the crankcase cover. I almost thought it was homemade when I first saw this. I see I need to study up on picture positng.

Guy finally sent me some pics, turns out it is a super 2, very disappointed. Have another set of saws I'm looking at on friday, 3 xl-12, 1 super ez-my favorite small saw-, and a unknown red powerhead that is larger than the xl-12's for $35 not sure if any run but for that price who cares.
So what is your question about a 3100? I guess I have not seen it. You know it is easier if you just ask a direct question.

I felt bad about missing your 3100 question, so I went back to see what I missed. I love all things big and blue or big and red. If you're dying to get one, I'll let you go first, I just want one real bad. I just got a 924 and I'm real happy with it, Joe.
He did ask a direct question. We all missed it. Check it out on page 75. "How rare are the 3100Gs?", is what he wanted to know.
I'd say pretty rare. Since I got mine 3 years ago, I've seen maybe 1 or 2 more on Ebay. And mine needed some help.

Need a case for a Homelite 540
In one of my better acts of recent stupidity, I managed to allow my pristine Homelite 540 fall off the rolling storage cart I keep it on. While the saw is 20 years old, it has only had 3 tanks of fuel run through it in its lifetime. Some before and after shots.
Anyone have a source for new case halves as well as a air cleaner cover? I suspect a MP88 chop saw may use the same case.

Am I missing something? The fuel tank/handle is destroyed but you looking are for a crankcase and A/F cover. Do you not need the tank? How did the crankcase get wrecked?
Anyway, good luck.

It's a resto. Here's the link to the original post. Starts out with my second 1050. This saw starts at #7.

I had a NOS 540 tank/handle here for years and ended up basically giving it away.
