I have a 39 year old Homelite Super EZ. I got it from a fellow who bought it new and ran it without oil in the gas soon after he got it. It was locked up. The year was 1980. With no initial investment, I rebuilt the engine, reassembled using Nord Lock vibration proof lockwashers, put the neoprene fuel lines on, installed the better 3 shoe clutch, solid state ignition, roller tip bar 16" with 76lp Oregon chain.

Has always started on the 2nd or 3rd pull every time I have gone to use it. Probably a rare exception. Always kept Stabil in the fuel.

That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi.
