Thanks! Serial number 61546 Strange Serial number, the earliest Homelites had a 6 digit number. Try posting 1 picture of the Identification Tag, as an attachment, that's 1mb in size or smaller. |

Welcome to the House of Homelite.
That's a new one to me. What does it say on the tag for a model?
It does not look like any of the other Homelite pumps, at least engine wise. The "square" top fan housing is unusual, the fan on all the rest I have seen has been between the pump and the engine.
Can you get some pictures all around and a sharper one of the tag?
Mystery pump from my point of view.

That is starting to look like an 8 or 9 engine with the output on the other end. I guess the mag would be moved too, under the flywheel. Perhaps it is entirely different, never saw one before.
A "fire pump" would be higher pressure for working with hose and a nozzle. The "normal" self priming pumps only make about 60 psi with the outlet blocked. The high pressure fire pumps usually make about 90 psi with usable flow, more pressure blocked off.
Nice unit, I like it. I am jealous.

My first impression was a Briggs engine on a Homelite pump. Parts of it still looks that way but it's interesting the Carb & muffler/exhaust choices.

To me it has many similarities to an 7-29 , hence the T-7 , the Serial Number may be 615461 .. late '56
