This is a new to me Homelite Super XL 925 that I'm working on. Runs strong now but too high at idle. I have a carb kit coming. Hopefully not a case leak.

 

Nice old saw. Should have tons of torque.

 

P/V test will tell you if there's a leak and will definitely save you some trouble in the long run .

What year do you think it was manufactured? I look at OPE from yesteryear and often wonder that.

 

Here's the carb cover. If these numbers are correct it would be a 1990 (the way I read it anyway). But I think the last year for this model was 1980.

 

That's a good pic. Lots of interests in there, old chainsaws, fishing, arrow fletchings and Snap-on Tools.

 

Every Homelite I own idles a little high. I always thot it was just the nature of the beast.

 

I noticed the Snap-ons to.
