5-20 Copper fuel line needed.

[weets]

Currently restoring a 5-20 and during disassemble I pulled a rookie move and snapped my copper fuel line from the gas tank to the carb. Ugh!! Looking for a replacement. If any of you have one you’d be willing to sell and or know where I can find one, please let me know.

Thx

A part number would help. Here's a parts list www.leonschainsawpartsandrepair.com/uploads/3/9/7/9/39792537/homelite_5-20_ipl_23067-1_2.pdf

Copper from the carb to the tank on a 5-20? Every one I've seen is a hose. Any chance you are working on a 5-30?

Nope she’s a 5-20 per ID tag and stickers on the saw. And yes it had a copper fuel line. Is see per the IPL via Leon’s site part No. A-55801 it looks like it’s rubber. Interesting.

Early 5-20s used a copper line, same as the 17. They had an HP-15B carb. Newer 5-20s had an HL carb and they used a rubber line.  Leon has the copper line in his store.

Thanks Dan. Just purchased it. The Homelite network strikes again! 👍. I would of never thought to look at the 17’s. Great knowledge. Also where did you get the IPL listed in this post for early 5-20’s?.Would love to get a copy for reference during my build.

As always much appreciated and keep on saving those old Homelites.

You're very welcome. Can't remember where I downloaded it. Could have been from chainsawcollectors.se, arboristsite, or another saw forum. Anytime I stumble across something looks useful, I try to get a copy. I can email it (it's a pdf), or if someone has a recommendation for a file sharing site, I can upload it. flickr won't let me upload it since it's not a pic or video.

And I'm now on the lookout for another IPL!

[lesorubcheek]

I remembered I had set up a onedrive to share the java app for serial number date lookup, so I stuck it under there. Here's the link:

Leon, feel free to grab it.  It's actually 2 IPLs in one, so it's up to you if ya wanna split it, or just leave it.

Thanks Dan!

I snagged an IPL on Ebay last night that I think is the right one...if not, I'll take you up on yours!

[lesorubcheek]

Started digging through the stash and found this 5-20 with a copper line. Thought I'd seen some with both copper and rubber, just wanted to make sure I wasn't imagining it.  The old brain is getting forgetful.
