Thanks guys,

You are right, It's my debt, so I gotta make it right in my own way.

At least if the recipient has trouble, I have all the spares to get it going again eh?


And since Mark can't see this "He does good work"

Duplicate post....

Does anyone know what the last year for the 3400's was? Looking at the CTC 3400 I picked up, the date slug in the top cover is dated July 1987. I didn't think they made them that late.

I'm needing two air filters for a 306-245. I posted this in the swap meet thread but I figure it can't hurt to post it here also. Let me know if ya can let loose of one or maybe two.

I think I recall some parts having a similar date stamp.

John,

I need to visit a former dealer tomorrow to see if he has some bits for a S25 and will see if he has any.

I've also got some parts for an S25da if you need something.

Thank you very much Gary!

I will check a source that had some as well. I'll let you know one way or another.

 

[machinisttx]

I could use one or two of those as well if they are available. I picked up another 306 that might be a runner, and the filters I have for my 245's don't look all that great.

The info I got says 1988 was the last year.

I have to look that stuff up, lots of things from the mid 80's is still more then a little fuzzy for me. LOL

Those were the days!!

No I cant!! But that's OK, I like it like that.

Your search results were wrong, it is like a 2300, not a CVA model.

I said VA, not CVA. The 2300VA has anti-vibe on the front handlebar only, which the PP225 has (looks like double rubber buffers above the clutch cover.) The CVA has full anti-vibe, with a big carrier under the rear handle, as well. If there's one thing I'm pretty good at, it's searching these interwebs. I bore deep into their bowels when necessary, trouble is having the right search terms (like knowing I was looking at a 2300-related saw.) That's where Poulan wizards like you folks come in handy, and I appreciate it.

Searching for saw-related information while AS was down was a challenge - it is the main source of relevant information about older saws, and details about what saws are related, which saws have parts that interchange, etc. I had to use the internet cache sites while AS was down (wayback machine, google cache), and even then, the pics didn't work. Sadly, AS returned, but many pics didn't, thanks to vile hacker scum.

I think it's funny how when I hang out here in the Poulan and McCulloch stickies, I almost completely forget what it's like in the "main" AS areas. I mean, if you ask a question there about any of "these" saws, you'll only get one of two answers: "Go to a Stihl dealer and get a real saw", or "Go to a Husky dealer and get a real saw." Until I found the stickies, it didn't feel like AS was a place I'd really care to hang out. I mean, even if I did get an orange saw, it would be something so old that the folks on the "main" AS areas wouldn't approve. "Why fight with an overweight, out-of-date saw? Get a new pro XXX and be done with it." As if all we wanted to do was be done with it and cut wood. Where's the fun in that?

Guys like that probably only shoot Glocks, and can't understand why I have guns from Spain and the Czech Republic.
