Standing all the way to the right shooting pic to the left could be doing that too. Closer bigger, further smaller.
Smallest one size and cc size is yellow in middle.

3000,
I knew you'd get it welded back together, despite what some others said.
Fossil,
I wonder if you can just fuse the polyethelyne back together using a soldering gun? I've fixed an air leak in a plastic Rollez tire and welded a trimmer muffler guard back together recently using just a solder gun to melt things back together - no welding rod used.
I have a plastic boat that I believe is manufactured out of roto-molded polyethelyne (a Logic, later to become Triumph boats). Supposedly you can fix gouges in it by just using a heat gun to melt it back together.
There is actually a plastic weld product that uses heat. Commonly lude to repair ATV plastic etc. but it's a PITA to use. I always used to seal my duck decoys up with a soldering iron. I had a hunting partner that used to shoot them sometimes (some friend huh?)
Stephen I have never seen a 3800 with 170psi. I am not saying one cannot, but if you could pull the muffler and look at the rings and see if they are real thin or thick like a regular ring. I am curious to see if you have something else.
Also that muffler style I have seen on other saws also.

Very nice looking saw Stephen! :msp_thumbup: The 3800 is a 61cc saw, same as the 3700. The 3800 should have a chrome piston, just like the 3400 does. I like them green & black saws. I don't own one, but they should have the same power as the 3700.
Gregg,
Gregg,
Stephen, Power wise, and this is just my personal experience with running the the mid size Poulan's, There isn't a whole lot of difference between the 61cc models, like the 3700/3800 and the 64cc 4000. You WILL notice a power difference between the 56cc 3400 and either of the slightly larger ones. I prefer the 4000, but thats just me. If you were to blindfold me and make me run a 3700 & 4000..I probably could not tell 100% for sure, which was which. They are that close.
Come to think of it though. I don't know if I ever ran one of each, back to back in the same wood to try and tell LOL

You certainly do nice work!
I had no doubt that you WOULDN'T get it done.
Just that it wasn't gonna be real easy.
How long did it take you to get it to that shape?

Just WOW Mark really
. You know what I am referring to on GREY craftsman 3000 cc wise . Bare bore chrome piston same cc as 3000 but 3000 is chrome bore bare piston. Why you want me to type that whole fing craftsman number. Well let me tell you that isnt going to happen. Grey craftsman 3000 it will be, so get over yourself.
Dare me
maybe I'll throw a chrome bore on it.

What do you mean get over myself? Seems like your the one who didnt like to be corrected here this morning.
Don't mattter if I know what your refering to or not, there are others here who may not understand and will end up confused and mistaken.
No big deal, but like I said there was no Craftsman equivalent to a 3000, end of story.
Call it a Craftsman 3.0 if you want to.
I like being corrected. Just some are in to nit picking it seems. :hmm3grin2orange:
Remember in Nov 2011 you were asking me to confirm if grey 3000 had bare bore or not.

Well if you think its nit picking, so be it, I explained why I posted that. Don't go trying to insult and make it personal.
What I asked back then was just asking for a confirmation of what I already knew. If I was all over myself you think I would have even asked that? No, around here quite a few of us seek the whole true story and while we dont always find it at least we try,.
Poulan 5020 with .325 and rim set up.
Mark where am I insulting and making it personal. :hmm3grin2orange: Your killing me this morning with my pot of coffee.
Do you want to call me before I bust a gut this morning?

You joined in May 2012?
Think I was here in 05 maybe. Then left in Jan 08. Didnt come back till May 2012. :msp_confused:
I get it now. 2011 question. Sorry I'm slow this morning. I run a chainsaw repair site too.
It might have already been said by another member, then again maybe not. Watch buying those replacement meteor 475 pistons on feebay. Just a heads up. The BB372 are straight drop ins. Just the ones I choose personally for my uses and saws.
Not sure of order, but thinking oem 475, meteor replacement, 475 oem, BB372 pistons

Come on now chaps, play nicely!
I guess I should have put some chainsaw #### (photos) in this request for help. :hmm3grin2orange: I may have to move this the the "Wild Thang" thread to get some much needed feed back. I know there is a bunch of you great folks that can help this poor neophite get his crappy saws back together.
Spring is coming so smile and treat each other with respect. This is such a great thread for learning.
Many thanks,
