If you're short you can double my commitment.

This is for 3400-4000 diaphragms? What else uses a cut shape? I'm having a brain fart.

I was still getting them from Poulan until not all that long ago, maybe within the last year.

Yup. 3400 thru 4000 and some pp models. Not sure what u mean by "cut shape".

Oiler diaphragms...

Ok... I meant just a shaped sheet of material making up the oiler instead of a plunger rod in the middle (like the little old stihls) or a gear set up.

What pp saws use this style?

 

[Wagnerwerks]

I'll be in... I'm sure I can use this sometime.

 

[redunshee]

I got the next best thing in it being a NOS 3700...

You're on. (I sure hope this stuff works)

Up to 9 now

I did some googling a little while ago and it looks like there are several companies that make this stuff, though it looks like it's most common at the .017" thickness.

I'll throw in on the diaphragms. I only have a couple of that series left after last weekend:msp_biggrin:, but hope to grab everyone I can find locally hopefully. Be good to have some extra parts.

I was able to find both the auto diaphragms and also the manual pump quad oil ring, have done two saws so far with them. No brand new assemblies though.

You know that this just the sheet material? You would have to cut your own gaskets. Still in?

The big problem is getting these manufacturer / distributors to deal in small quantities.

Still in!

I don't post much here, but I do read a lot. Sooner or later I will probably be able to use some of this. If there's any left, I'm in. Tell me where to send the coin.

[Eccentric]

Alright count me in too.

You might want to get a hold of Joe Salva and see where he gets his material for the obsolete carb kits he makes up.
