Hi all, new here so please excuse my ignorance. I picked up 2 earlier XL-12's. One is red, Serial # 50560421 (which is a 1975 if I read it right). One is blue, serial # 11100428 (guessing its a 1971). There are no UT numbers on the tags. Where are the best places to get parts? I was looking at lil red barn website and everything is listed by UT numbers. How do I know if I'm ordering the right parts? Both saws run, needing minor things.

Blue saw leaks gas around gas cap and the grommet at the tank, oil cap lugs are broken off too. Red saw needs a new chain tension lug and leaks bar oil at the fill cap. Both could use air filters and was going to pick up new bars and chains for both.

Yes both run. Didn't when I got them. Got the red saw for free, liked it so I picked up the blue saw for $40 at a flea market. Both just just needed cleaned up and points set. I may have just found a new hobby.

It's a great hobby to have,very rewarding.I don't know if Leon has any air filters,but if not they can be found on eBay at a reasonable price.If Leon doesn't have your other neederd parts check with me,I bought a pick up truck load of parts back in Aug.
