Does it have an ID tag ? I'm always on the hunt for unlisted UT numbers.
That would be the icing on the ca... Wait a sec, it's covered in icing... fresh from the snowbank ! lol.
Kool find... haven't seen an XL-76 with that ignition before.

UT is in your list 50108, I know early ones show points in the ipls, but haven't seen this module, gonna tear into it, maybe it's been frankensawed, have only personally seen this module on a super vi200

Unfortunately the S clutch on this one is broken, too bad the sprocket looks brand new, might have to change it to a 3"

I have a 76 with that ignition system.
I don't think those red Homelite chips were any better than the Prestolite modules.

It's a points ignition with an S-Clutch. The air filter cover is red, yours is probably a Super XL-130 part. My Super VI-200 from the List has the Red Ignition Module and I've also seen them on Super XL-130's . What is the SN (Date of Manufacture) of your XL-76 ? Fossil: Please post a picture or info from the ID tag. Thanks |

This Wil be the parts saw to fix this 76, and to fix another 76 while I'm at it I'd be fixing up the donor saw. That's a VI200. It should have the Terry box muffler on it. |

That saw is a frankensaw was a vi200 at some point.. But wrong muffler, fuel tank from different saw, was hit by an axy so has a xl-76 recoil starter and prestolite electronic ignition, and cylinder and piston are from a xl-101, so only 54cc..i prefer to keep saws as original as possible so this one lost since it has parts from 4 different saws.. Lol and have 2 complete vi200 that are original or at least model correct |

I don't have time at present to start pulling starter covers off to see which saw it is but it does show up on IPL 79263 dated 8/83

The same red ignition module is also shown in the VI-130 IPL:79264 8-83, same diagram as the XL-76 IPL.
I haven't seen any VI-130's earlier than 1981 models.
1979 was the transition year into the blue Prestolite Module on Super XL-130's.
Perhaps '79 XL-76's UT:50108-50139 had the red ignition module attached to the coil.
Pop the flywheel off when you get a chance Kevin... to see what's under there.

I pulled it off last night, it still have a cover for points but obviously empty I can snap a picture after work |

Kool find... haven't seen an XL-76 with that ignition before. It looks like it was used to convert points to electronic as an option I received this from Canada in a parts lot.

Nice! I've never seen one of those kits NOS before, so it's cool to see the Homelite documentation!
