Default Homelite ST175 String trimmer parts?


"Gunner Asch" wrote in message
...
On the way home yesterday, stopped at a yard sale and purchased a
rather good looking Homelite ST-175 (17") string trimmer for $3.
It has a cracked fuel tank and Im looking for a replacement

Trimmer model ST-175, (20541B on lable on shaft)

According to the 'net..the fuel tank appears to be part# A01441

Any good (cheap) sources for one?

Trimmer is complete, with good compression.and in good cosmetic
condition. Good spark.

It appears to have had something dropped on the tank at the top, so
its worth repairing


Thanks

Gunner

Home Depot is a source to order parts from, but they'd be full-boat retail. Ask
any yard service guy. However, Homelite is crap, I went through a few until I
started buying Echo. We use them to keep the shop's grounds in order.
