Default homie 25cc cant find one

At one time I was able to find homelight 25cc weedey engines every were. Now that I need to find one they are no were to be found.

I have 2 right now but I have one on a plane that I do not want to take off it.

I am building a twin engine bird and I would like to run 2 homelite 25cc on it. That is the way it goes. Now if I was looking for a 33cc chainsaw I would find 50 25cc and I would not be able to find the one of the 33cc. That is just how it goes.

Were do you all look for the engine you run?

$ 20 for a good runner at a lawn mower place should ALWAYS do the trick. Leave word at 2 or 3 places.

Never mind a "good runner" ask for permission to go through their junk pile and offer $5 ea for what you pick out.

Your right.

Now days parts and labor are almost as much as a new one.
A coil for a Echo CS-300 chain saw is $60.00 plus $60.00 an hour to put it in.
A new one is less than $200.00.

If it has a fuel leak or needs a new Carb. or a new coil, who cares?
They are going to be replaced anyway.

Less than 10% have had bad piston and cylinder, so far any way.
