Super XL130 SL

[Clasec]

Just got this one in and started cleaning it up and installing the correct parts and upgrading others from a donor saw.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          SXL130SL RH by Clasec, on Flickr                                                                                                                                       SuperXL130 Donor saw by Clasec, on Flickr                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    I was intrigued by the brakes on these earlier models as they are bigger, more square and made out of aluminum. The one on the saw is beat up but I had a good one on hand. Notice the lower band mount is not drilled.More work for me.               SXL130SL cover by Clasec, on Flickr                                                                                     This brake uses a different handle mount than the newer ones and appears to be made from aluminum and solid mounted.(no shoulder bolts with rubber sleeves)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            SXL130SL Handle mount by Clasec, on Flickr     SXL130 Handle mount by Clasec, on Flickr                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Now to get the grips on.    SXL130 grip kit by Clasec, on Flickr

Cleaned up nice, glad it went to your collection. 

Is it Solid State Ignition ? Prestolite ?

It looks to be solid state. It doesn't have the blue module the module is black and the plug wire is red.Has a Wico flywheel.

 I noticed the plug wire, figured it was aftermarket maybe the module is too.
If we only had all the IPL's it would make it so much easier, especially for a previously unseen UT model.

Pic of the module when you have time please.

Thanks for the pictures!

That is the early Solid State Ignition system, the module is the red rectangular piece attached to the coil.
Any markings on the red plug wire ? ... never seen that on a Homelite-Terry before, may have been
changed .. alot can happen on a 40+ year old saw.
 

[Clasec]

I didn't see any markings on the wire. I was wondering what the red rectangle was. Do you happen to know the brand of the ignition? Thanks,Charles.

Unsure of the brand of the module, may be a Terry-only made piece, haven't seen one on a US made saw.
All models of this series used Wico flywheels, the ignition system to match would be Wico/Prestolite

I have the same module on my '75 Super VI-200, my '79 Super XL-130's (3) all have the blue Prestolite modules.
1978 may have been the last year for the red rectangular module attached to the coil.

Great pictures, thank you! I've never actually seen that module before, just read about it. I'm guessing that the module is very similar to an Atom branded module.

 The pictures are superb ! 

I had to compare the Atom to this module and the Atom is half the size, have a blue Atom on a '81  XL-76 ..
and an orange Atom on a '69  Pion--r 3200. Believe Atom modules were made in Australia...

  The stamped Wico part number FWM-2502A, is actually the coil (Homelite #:64091).
The module is the red rectangular piece.
My '78  XL-76 ( points/condenser ignition ) has the same stamped numbers on it's coil.
The red rectangular module attached to the coil of my '75 SUPER VI-200 is stamped;  A-122350  PAT. PEND.
Best I can gather, the modules were Terry made and used on units from 1974 to 1978.

Here is a picture of the module.
