S25CVA have an outside bar plate? I've had one of these before but don't remember.

Yes, the same exact one that's used on the inner 530023455

Well no muffler mod yet, haven't had much time the last couple days, but cleaned her up tonight, thing is in great shape! I even found a spot where someone used touch up paint on a little spot that must have gotten a scratched. Shade of green is almost a prefect match. Kind of funny.

That is really nice 3400. Now you will have to get her dirty again in a big fat log.

Saw is n great shape. Wonder if it was painted by previous owner?

I don't think so, paint looks original to me. I don't think it was used much, even the outside of the motor is really clean too.

I found another 3400 locally that I'm going to pick up tomorrow for $30. I haven't seen it but apparently it is in good shape cosmetically and runs. We'll see tomorrow!

Quick question, so I was just out starting the 3400, cause its new and I wanted to start it up again . I thought I had the idle and h/l screws set correctly earlier in the week, but just now when I started the saw up and go to rev the saw it bogs down for just a second before it takes off. What adjustment is needed to get rid of that initial split second bog?

Try it at around 1-1/8 turns out. That works well for me. I'm about 700 ft above sea level.

When you get the low adjusted where you want then go back and check the high also.

Thanks fellas!

...and so it begins.

The funny math of chainsaws: 1+2 = 12

Funny how that works, got my first back in August and this one I'm picking up today or tomorrow will be number 5! Oh boy!

I have eliminated 19 saws from my collection in the past 10 days...

Let's see. Since I've got about 10% in numbers of what you have I would have to get rid of two. That would kill me.
