I am going to admit I didn't read all the other posts first I saw the pic and posted

Find a nice shelf to display it and get a modern saw to use. The joints in your fingers, hands, and wrists will thank you later.

No spark arrester on that saw.
Good advise DanN

Eh...I use mine every now and then. I put the Granberg slab jig on it and cut posts, works well. Definitely wouldn’t want to use it every day that’s for sure. Parts are getting hard to find too.
Mine also don’t sit on a shelf..I hang them by the handle from the purlins of the log shop. I get compliments all the time..or a few look in horror.
I recently picked up an 1100 with what looks like a winch drive on it. Wish I could get pics to post. Can’t find a name on the case.

yep, which makes it not an XL or XL 12

Homelite made them.
for Remington and some cross reference and parts are at Jacks, https://www.jackssmallengines.com/equipment/remington/chainsaw/sprockets even in Jarrettsville where I used to pile up the pheasants back in the 60's-70's.

I have a chainsaw problem, don't know how to start a new topic, don't want to offend. . I pulled a big woops the other day. put chain oil in gas tank. . . if ok I will describe problem. old 243

Makes it NOT an xl or xl12?? You are wrong, ALL of my homelites have manual oilers. The xl 923 has auto and thumb the xl925 is just thumb.

If I could post pictures I could prove it....dang it.

Fire away.

You can’t post using the site functions?

i'm just saying all my XL's had automatic oilers

I don't see it as being a big problem. Dump the oil out of the gas tank, pull the sparkplug, hit the bulb primer several times if it has one and crank on it a few times. The oil might move slow through the gas line but I think you can move it along. Probably foul a plug in the process before it comes out of it.

Hobbietrapper I haven’t been able to post pics since the last time the site was (changed?).. no matter what I do I can’t seem to post....think I was able to resize? my picture once or twice and it took but that’s it. I’m also working from a mobile phone so that could be my problem.

Test pic

Well hot dog it worked!! Never works at home, I’m in town right now...
