I've got several old homies - Super XL-12 Auto, XL-12, XL, XL2, Super 2 and they're not shelf queens either, all of them get used. I really like old Homelites!

I, as you probably know, still use a lot of the Old Homelite C-Series saws. In fact I think I have your site listed as one of the providers of a few parts for them.

Are you still able to get the ignition coils for them? I don't need any at the moment, but I was curious if you could still get them and about how much they ran. You can pm me if you wish.

Thanks,
Greg

Kioritz SRM 302A (Echo) trimmer

is that a SRM-302ADX instead of a SRM-302A cause i type in SRM-302A on the echo site and it brings up SRM-302ADX just wondering cause how hard is it for you finding parts for that trimmer ?

such as coils


i think you will be surprised to see what we actually have in the coils and points and condensers

I really enjoy running the old Homelites. However, I seem to like the old McCullochs just as much. I've got a line on some vintage Echos that I just might give a try.

I rev up the Olympyk now and then. Has a good sized 24 inch J-red bar on it. I am tempted to get the old Mac running again, but I cannot ever see using it. 36 inch bar on it, and heavy as a truck. Cut as you squirt model... the 361 will outcut either one. Even the 290 will probably outcut them.

All it has on the tag is Kioritz SRM-302A, so I'm assuming it is several years old since it doesn't have the Echo name on it anywhere. I downloaded an IPL from the Echo site for the SRM-302ADX and just by looking at it, it looks to be the same machine. I got this off of my Dad last year and he got it from an estate sale several years ago and he has never had it running so I plan making it a project this spring. Compression seems real good, but will probably need carb kit and what not to get it going.
