Many thanks Ray!

Hi Ray, Any chance you have a manual for a Stihl BG 55 Leaf Blower? TIm

If it keeps failing you can use a Husky 154/ 254, 51, 55 and others coil. I used a coil that the cow gave me that was from amazon. Works well. Definitely not a straight drop in. If you can get the Homelite armature into the Husky or Chinese Clone coil. you should be good to go. Works on Pioneer...

After looking at some 2011 conversation on AS with Mark, Chris and Aaron, it appears the 361 never had an auto oiler and were 59cc. The 451 was 4 cubes with an auto oiler.

Check this for the metallic blue on the older Homelites. Dupli-Color DE1616 Pontiac Blue Metallic Engine Paint 12 Oz

I'd check fuel and air filter and look for any kinks in the fuel line. I sounds like the carb isn't pumping enough fuel at idle. Some aftermarket fuel filters look OK but get restricted over time. Metering needle lever height? I'm not sure if the fuel line on those is made from the tygon...

Sounds like an old Pioneer clutch.:D

Apparently some 80's came with that muffler. There's 2 pics of 80's with that style muffler on Magnus' site.
