Homelite XL tophandle oiler parts

[Mill_wannabe]

Hi folks,

I acquired a couple of Homelite XL tophandle saws this weekend as projects. These are the little 26cc machines with the pressure oiling setup. In looking in the bar oil tank, I see both are missing the duckbill checkvalves and the porous brass tube.# The duckbill valve is easy to find, but what about the porous brass tube?

Without those pieces, you get a heck of a smoke show...

So thats why mine smokes so much...I'll be watching this thread. Thanks for posting.

The reason for the porous tube is so pressure can bleed off after the saw stops running. If a solid tube was used, then the oil would seep out until pressure was equilized. Changes in temperature could force the oil to seep out also.

Thanks, Dan. That's how I thought it worked. Are these porous tubes still available somewhere?

I'd guess Calvin may have some. Hay Calvin, ya out there? If not, Kyle at Edge and Engine may be able to help.

Does anyone know where I can get one of these brass fittings (69659) that to go with the duckbill for the oiler?
