Better leave it in its cacoon Gary. It might just morph into a 6900 or 7700!

I have been looking for one of these for two years now. The paint's not perfect but a cursory check when I bought it shows the basic saw and parts to be in good shape. I will have to go through it before start up.
Notice that the muffler on these does not have the typical side port.

Wow that is an awesome example Tim! Very cool saw! Probably fairly rare too and especially in that shape!
WOW!! Very nice Tim. I remember Nik saying the 4000's were orange up north there. I think
I saw a pic of one once, but yours is by far the nicest one I have seen.

Wait a minute, an orange Poulan?
On another note, what's the most important thing to look at when buying a used saw?

Canadian version. My father in laws 8500 is orange and a Canadian model.

My folks brought up the 3700 and the super 250A I bought a couple weeks ago together for $30. Haven't touched the 250A but got the 3700 cleaned up today. Piston and cylider look almost new, but haven't started it yet cause I want to check the carb and fuel lines.
I'm doing well, thanks for asking, going to get stitches out Tuesday. Walking some each day with a walker so I don't lose my balance and hit the old nogin. Got my new fuel tank check valve put in Saturday with my brothers help but won't let me start it. Maybe in a few more weeks I can.

Really nice!!!
Nice early 3700 Nate! I would love to see a pic of the very elusive 250A . Heard a lot about them, but never seen one. I bet it looks a lot like the more common Super 25 DA .

I'm thinking (uh oh!) that muffler is the style used up to the 4200; the side pipe showed up on the 4400 and up.
Chris,
The 3400 - 4000 series have a different muffler. Here's a pic of a 4000 muffler. The other don't have this side port.
As far as I know, all the 4200 - 8500 saws have the same round exhaust port.

Gregg,
Haha, your absolutely right, my bad!!!
On another note Gregg, you said the gap on rings on my 4000 looked a bit wide and may need new rings. I did a compression test finally yesterday and it was at 140. Thoughts?
