I finished an assembly today that had been waiting for several months and with its completion I thought I would take some 1122 series family photos. Two 064s and two 066 Red Lights. One of the red lights is waiting for an new fuel cap and the other needs a correct pull handle Other than that they're all solid runners and in pretty good condition. There is another brother missing from the photo - a ported 064 with an OEM 3/4 wrap handle and the correct hand guard - but it's out on loan at the moment.
Howdy Dex! I figured you might like the wrap handle on the one 064! Also, on a side note, I have it of good authority that you need to update your signature...
"New" Homie XL-924 arrived yesterday. Same 82cc displacement as the more common XL-925/Super XL-925,just a couple years older. Havent made any cuts yet,but its a strong running beast with 175PSI compression.Started cold in 4 pulls. West Coast version with full wrap handlebar & extra large falling spike too
Today while digging through some junk I have stored in garage at parent's acreage I found this in the corner. Brother gave it to me about a year ago,along with a pretty beat up & filthy early 70's Power Mac 6 (Already had one of those in excellent shape which is a good runner). The Homie & the Mac were given to him from a friend about a year back.The guy was a recently retired Postmaster from a very small nearby town,was moving out of state & was clearing out/giving away a bunch of stuff he didn't want to take with him. Homie has very good compression,dont know about spark or anything else yet.I may just clean it up & use it for a paperweight...According what what research I found so far,its a 32cc/2 cubic inch model from mid 70's to early 80's thereabouts.
That's the venerable Super 2. Yours is the more desirable twin trigger, earlier version. They run real good when all is well, but the fuel and oil line situation can drive you nuts. The lines go soft from age and alcohol in the fuel, more often than not, the little duckbill check valves are a wad of goo by now. The one used as a tank vent is usually missing and the saw then leaks fuel everywhere when tipped or inverted with a full tank of fuel. Check the oil tank for the little sintered bronze (or stainless) tube that goes on the end of the pressure line. Don't lose it because they are NLA and getting pretty rare to find these days. I could use 1 or two myself. Also the oil pump plunger/diaphragm while not hard to find, is dammed expensive. Most show up for about $20-30 plus shipping. Check the case for wear too. The screws on those tend to back out and the motor bounces around inside the case creating a ton of wear inside the housings. If you get it running, you might find that you like it a lot. But they do make damm fine paperweights as well.
