Homelite st 275 engine parts

[Emarshbuck]

Does anyone have a source for engine parts for the homelite 25cc engine? It will not start due to low compression and I suspect it needs a new piston ring. I have disassembled it, cleaned the exhaust ports and muffler, inspected the piston and engine block for cracks and they appear sound.

Suggestions always appreciated.

The ring part number is a PS01359 which supercedes to a 678001002. As long as everything else is in good shape it may be worth a shot if you want to put money into it. The Homelite distributor has like 700 in stock, so it is available.

Gardner is the sole Homelite distributor, but they do not sell to the general public. Must be signed dealer to order.
