That is one sorry looking homonite. Does it run?

 

[Saskman]

it runs like a charm

 

[big1079]

looks like a super xl 955 or similar. about 80cc. if saw has full compression it could run a 3 footer maybe even bigger

 

[Saskman]

the compression is still good if I got the numbers off the saw would this help in determining the CCs and possible a bar size?

That saw is a super xl 922.4.7 cubic inch engine.Saws at 7500 rpm.Saw will work best with 20" bar and 7 tooth sprocket.Low rpms but lots of torx.What part of the provance are you from.North ,east ,south or west.Later Don.

[donnyman]

Ya no kidding .Ever heard of a place about 100 miles south of you by the name of rockglen.

Did ya actually have the cahones to start the thing with the chain hangin down like that. and if so do you still have em.

 

[Saskman]

I lent it out and got the saw back with the chain like that. and to run a saw like that you gotta have big ones and big arms help also

 

[Saskman]

no all jokes aside it wouldnt take big anything to start that saw and use it with the chain hanging like that, that would just be pure stupidity we all have to keep 1 thing in mind safety first

I have a xl925, just about the same size. Mine is 5.1 cubic inch. I run a 28" bar with .404 full skip semi chisel. Buried in hardwood, that's about all she'll pull for an old saw. I'd go with a 26" bar with .404 with full skip.
