[AT] O.T. Older Homelite chain saw parts

[joehardy at epix.net]

To all: A big THANK YOU to all who responded to my parts problem with my Homelite chain saw! The varied " in depth"  knowledge on this site is awesome!  Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas and 2017 filled with good health and to finding many  locations of tired iron which would ultimately be restored to working order again. ( My MM 335 is still not all together yet,; but under canvas outside and under my bedroom window. Too much snow and cold weather to do anything now. The Mrs says it must be moved, one way or another, by mid Summer. I'm now working on her to agree to  a metal shed out back.)  Joe Hardisky  Ryman Farm Dallas, PA

 As long as you don't mind aftermarket parts, try this place, I clicked 
on Homelite saws and he must have over 100 listed, the first Super XL 
had an air filter listed for $20.
I bought gaskets and a piston assy and crank bearings from them last 
year for my 041AV Stihl. I have ran about 3 tanks of fuel through it 
with no problems.

Wanted to buy replacement filter but found it obsolete. I just couldn't believe this. I cleaned it by spraying brake cleaner on the outside and using compressed from the inside. Worked great. I just couldn't scrap a good old chain saw because of an obsolete part that should remain in stock.. Another example of a "throw away" society!  Joe Hardisky  Ryman Farm  Dallas, PA
