HOMELITE Homelite Thread

[Pine Marten]

I got workin' in the man cave today. I snapped a photo of the 330 intake boot in the reed cage. Then I started on my Fleebay 3100G cylinder. It had been dropped/smacked on the skirt, and needed some TLC. I found an old Honda CR125 piston that fit well, and taped some emery paper to it and sanded the ding out. I haven't been able to find any other cylinders, so this should do. Now I need to find a piston and rings.........

Messed with the 5-20 today and got spark. I'm pretty happy about that.

Got the 5-20 to run on prime. Now it's time to start on the fuel system.

The ez6 just needs a carb kit, and it will be good to go.

The original ez I can't get spark. It needs a coil or a condensor.

I have an extra bar, and rim drive clutch set up if you need one. I also have a few Tilly carbs.

Thank you for the offer, and I will let you know for sure. I need to do more testing to determine if the coil or condenser is shot on the ez. It's basically the same saw as the ez6.

Let me know if you need help finding a coil, condenser I have several cross reference charts from Homelite to Phelon . I have found you can find the parts cheaper and easier using Phelon part numbers.

Will the Phelon cross over to Wico? This saw has the Wico set up. It would be great to find the parts. I checked fleabay with no luck.

Looks like Coil numbers are:
Homelite 55403
Prestolite 5-5023
Wico X9533
Looks like Condenser numbers are:
Homelite 55399
Prestolite 2-5015
Leon’s chainsaw has NOS Homelite condensers.
I found when getting my Zip running it was the condenser that was bad. You might also check with Chainsawlady she has some really old Homelite stuff. Hope this helps.

Kinda looks like a 925 but older. I'm not sure.

Is there somewhere on the saw to look for serial numbers that you know of. I haven't really looked it over much

Bottom side of the saw or remove the air filter cover and look around the carb area.

It looks like it might be a VI 955. I found this site, about halfway down is a VI 955
