As I stated, been a long time since I worked on a Homelite chainsaw. Engine had a lot of movement inside case, and I discovered one mounting screw was broken and other two were loose.
One screw is behind the clutch and needs tightening or---- removal to replace broken screw in front.
Problem is, it has an outboard clutch and drum is retained by NUT instead of "E" clip. I am 90% sure it is a LEFT HAND THREAD but the other 10% leaves room for crankshaft breaking! ! !  It is very tight!
I have never encountered a RH thread in this type application but who can tell me for sure?
If I could see some threads on crank, I could tell.
