HOMELITE Homelite Thread

Duals always make everything better.

This followed me home today. Looks to be very well taken care of. Former owner says that it starts and runs fine . . . for awhile, then stops. Won't re-start unless it is completely cooled down. Sound familiar to anyone? Coil? Condenser? . . . . .





Homelite Super Mini S Automatic. Model number is UT 10546. Made in Canada. This one has a chain brake and vibration mounts. Some posts in other forums suggest that this is similar to the Super EZ Auto?

Thanks!

Yes it's basically a SEZ with anti vibe. It probably has the notorious blue prestolite coil?

Thanks. I have not opened it up yet - not sure when I will get a chance. Wanted to find out if this is a common problem, if parts are available. etc., before I got too invested in it.

Those blue coils are available, but they've been trouble prone since new. Pioneer used them too.

It could be converted to points

Sweet old xl400 that I got going for a friend.

How can I tell what model a Homelite saw is if the tag is missing? They appear to be Super Wiz 77's or 80's to me. They have the strap going across the top that I have not seen on the 55 and 66 pictures I have found. Any info is appreciated. Thanks!

Just joined. Lotta messages on this site for only a few short months. Were memberships moved here from another site?

 

[Philbert]

Some folks kinda moved themselves. . .

Get a new belt on the 7-20 Steve?

It was the 5-30 that you fixed me up with Carl. No belt yet. Might put one of the 26 LCS belts on it for now and not get too frisky with it.

Yeah, I needed Cobey to help me pack it around.

Is the belt a standard pitch, length and width commercial timing type?

That's the challenge. .540 pitch. 14mm comes very close but can't get a tooth count that low. I'm waiting for an engineer from Carlisle Belt to come by the dealership to see what he can come up with.

Picked up a few Homelites and parts yesterday.
