Homelite Chainsaws

[leeha]

Out of curiosity, what do you guys think a Super 1130G Automatic is worth these days?
There's this one near me that has been up for sale for slightly over a year now that I keep looking at. No idea if it's still available or not, but I've never been interested in paying his asking price of $450.
Is that a fair price? Cheap? Overpriced?
Ad says it comes with a 27" bar, starts and runs easily, but needs a new clutch shear pin; whatever that may be.

If it actually is a good deal I might try reaching out to the guy sometime in the future, after I've had a chance to fix up and sell off some of the numerous parts/project saws that I've accumulated this year.

It's worth the 450 although if it's been for sale for a year i'm sure you could throw him an offer of maybe 350 and take it home.

It's pretty easy to pull the muffler on those, its a fair price if the innards are good.

I would have bought it twice already!

I posted in the for sale a while ago, but don't know how visible it is to some. Anyways, I'm looking for a 130 or the like with a full wrap. Anyone have one they wanna part with?

Are you looking for an 1130 geardrive or an xl130 which is like a super EZ, Big difference

Well...Looking for both.

I saw just commenting on the above about the price of that 1130. I would have snagged that already.

Picked up this 750 today. Looks like it had sat a number of years and had some stale gas in the tank. Suprisingly the fuel line was still pliable and in good shape. Tank was clean too. A little fresh gas and the damn thing fired right up. Runs and idles amazing. I'll go through it at some point just cause but happy with it so far.

Only issue was the handle bar mounting holes on the fuel tank were all stripped out. I think they were loose at some point and saw was still ran that way and it pulled all the threads out. I happened to have a M6x1.00 tap and matching drill. I think the fix came out amazing.

I am in need of a muffler though. Anyone have a good muffler?

Got the 750 cleaned up and running.

There is no end. Even when it ends for a few years...you will always be back!

Does anyone know if a 350 bucking spike will fit a 360? There are a couple large ones for a 360 on eBay, but I’d like a smaller one.

Yes, the spikes are the same.

Heading home tonight and at the last minuet decided to check out the dump before going for a load of wood.
Glad i did because i was able to save a couple old Homies with some kind of contraption on one of them
995G x2 one turns over.
The contraption must be a Homlite item as it clamps to gearcase cover that looks factory made.Not sure if the hydroilic cylinders are part of it they were laying with the saws so i took them too.

Might be meant to power a lift jack for felling? @Jacob J. Might know.

You got a diamond in the rough there....Homie 900 series geardrives (especially the last one,the 995) are sought after collectible saws with incredible power & torque. Not getting easy to find them now.

Yes they fit in with my 100cc plus group and the gear drive group.
I am hoping there is enough good parts to get one running.
Will need a bar holder/adjuster as both were without

Great score. There was a bar holder in the Facebook group the other day.
