But I don't know of anything being available for a Homelite 21? The ones everyone is converting are the Homelite 25 and 30cc string trimmers and the 33 thru 45cc chain saws.
Enjoy,
Jim

Conversion Parts
I don't know of any Homelite 21 cc engines either, Do you possibly have a Poulan 21cc? If you are in need of some conversion parts send me a PM. I do complete conversions or can supply you with the parts you need. My Hubs are $15.00 and Mounts are $12.50.

Look strongly at getting a bigger carb for it. If you have a carb with no HS needle, It will be impossible to get it to run right.
On a 25 with the stock carb, stick with a 16-10. It will turn it 7000 to 7100. With the Walbro WA167A from a Zenoah G23, it will do the same with a 18-8.

In appreciation......
Jim,
I don't personally know you, and there are many other moderators and members who are also very helpful, but I think you deserve special recognition for your unselfish, generous, and helpful advice you give to other RCr's in all subjects in this forum! What a great hobby!
Thanks!

Just want to chime in on the praises for Jim. I'm really glad he is the moderator for this forum. I've only known Jim to be courteous and helpful since I've started coming here.
Jim, I do have a question that has been burning a hole in my head for the past year - just what is "w8ye" supposed to say?
