Homelite Chainsaws

[Piotr Pakula]

I made two trial cuts and the night was done with us. It's hard to hear such a sound with us ;-)There are the dates 72 & 75 on the case. It bites the tree quite well

Is something missing from this fuel cap? Releases fuel when saw is tipped

Under the brass plug is a duckbill valve that is probably turned to goo.
Adjustment screwdriver should pop it out and replace the duckbill.

On the 2000 model, I know for the 1050s (A) means automatic oiler plus manual.

What is a carburetor? I am asking because there is no strainer and the needle valve does not hold Pressure

Walbro sdc

 

[Maintenance supervisor]

To slow up the PM's.

I sold 2000 to a guy on my chainsaw repair group FB for $240 already yesterday. Not out to gouge folks like some do. Just wanted to cover my time and gas getting it.

Only took 5mins too. Was just asking about the differences in 2000 2100 etc.

Like above still trying to figure why 3 2000 listed.

Sadness that it sold. I do love the sdc swap on these.

I found that the fuel line is to have 9 "x 1/4" and I put on 5mm because I had one and it is also ok ;-)
SXLAO
There is no duckbill at all, do you need this particular one or maybe it is from a different saw?

 

[Piotr Pakula]

The chainsaw only works when the spark plug is heated torch . Cuts well and does not go out. I don't know what the cause is

Yes you need the duckbill.

Here's a fine addition to my family of Homies - an XL-76.I had to put a new chip in it to get spark again & replaced the Walbro carb with a Tilly HS125.

I found such a set for the carburetor and I do not know if it is a duckbill or something else? Apparently it is a kit for the husky 444

I turned the two reed valves because they are after some passes so that they fit better and I lowered the valve levers in the carburettor / see if it helps / The ignition interrupter was set to 0.020 to reduce it to the written 0.015

 

[Piotr Pakula]

Now it runs like new jupi . Now it would be appropriate to throw it into the washing machine for a decent spinning wash ;-)

 

[Piotr Pakula]

What is the difference with the SHLAO & HLAO ?
I do not know how this saw has good crank seals after so many years ;-)

 

[Piotr Pakula]

Fuel is leaking from the tank :-( probably at the connection of both halves? I wrote badly above ;-) SXLAO & XLAO

It could be leaking at the seam in the tank. Clean it and see if you can see the leak.

There is no difference between an XLAO and a SXLAO. The Canadian Terry built saws (if there is a label on the saw) were all marketed as an XLAO.

There is a lot of work to do with this separation of the fuel tank?
What sealant will be good?

 

[fossil]

The screws can be difficult to remove. If you can find some fuel tank sealer, you way want to use that.

 

[PogoInTheWoods]

Need to specifically identify the source of the leak. Could be fuel line related and simply ending up at the bottom of the saw.
