Homelite XP. Finally Got One

[Wildman1024]

Well after my last thread about the 100cc club then getting the shaft I was able to find a decent rebuild-able one from someone here. Needless to say she needs a lot of work but I was happy to put my super 754 project aside for the moment and get to work on this. Everything about this saw is pretty fresh in my mind since I just got done putting the C-9 back together and they are very very similar.

If anyone can tell me which model XP it is from the pics that would be great. The clutch cover says XP Power Master on it and if its the right one for the saw my guess is 1000 or 1020.

If anyone has any parts for my build I would appreciate it. I need a clutch cover, pull start, crank bearings, crank seals and gaskets and wouldn't mind some rings since its apart. I already have a new NOS handle on its way.

Before she goes back together she is gonna get some new paint and I'm gonna be on the look out for a 30-36" bar.

Maybe Brad will chime in and want to do his 1st Homelite XP port job?????

As you can see the compression is still great but the bearings don't sound to healthy. It kept hanging up on something. I got the cases split and the clutch side bearing was great so whatever it is, is on the flywheel side.

The plate is missing so no serial # or anything on it. :censored:

Measure the bore or piston and post a pic of the reed cage

 

[Wildman1024]

I only have a tape measure so the best measurement of the bore I could get was 2 3/16"

Looks like Super XP-1050

does it have auto oiler?

No auto oiler! This saw looks like I could bolt everything from my c-9 on it except the cylinder is bigger.

I think it is a 1000 or 1020

Possible

But I am pretty sure they were open transfer ports.

Most of the body parts and other parts swap out between the C's XPs Super XPs 1XXX and 2XXX saws

The crank is what has me baffled if it's a Super 1050E

 

[lawnmowertech37]

the xp 1000 ipl shows the reed valve seat part 59627

also same thing for the xp1100

see if your carb shows a tillotson HL261 if that has the HL261 carb on it then you have a xp1000 or 1100

has anyone seen bill g

 

[Wildman1024]

My carb is the Tillotson HL249A

 

[Wildman1024]

Would I be able to use a 1050 1130 crank case on this if I wanted? I have found lots of parts including new ones and might as well make a hybrid of all the best new parts

My carb is the Tillotson HL249A

that there may help narrow the search some
