I'm with John on this one. Try reversing the springs or give them a little bend so there's more tension holding the shoes back.
What fossil said. Last 2 S25's I had, reversing the clutch spring/plates worked like a charm.

Thought of that but just bought 3 sets ,just in case.What fossil said. Last 2 S25's I had, reversing the clutch spring/plates worked like a charm.
Not really though I appreciate the offer. I have two torn apart in a parts box. I'll experiment with bending the flat springs a bit until the new ones arrive. Have three other saws I can install them on.I might have a whole clutch set up in the s25da parts bin. Anything else while I look?
I'm sure some of the guys have real old Poulans. I know Modified Mark has several and maybe he'll chime in.Is a Poulan KD 100 a desirable saw? I believe it's rare.

Good luck with that one. They're like hens teeth.Oiler diaphragms.
Where is Mark, haven't heard from him in awhile. Always like hearing his advice on the old Poulans.

Replace the oil lines in the tank, more than likely they are broken.How worn is the sprocket on this saw? I'm trying to troubleshoot a problem, the chain keeps going tight when the saw runs. It's a poulan 2300. I've read it can be the chain is jumping out of the worn spots or it can be lack of bar oil. I know the oiler works, as it tends to dump 3/4 of the oil out before it even seens 2 minutes of work. Maybe thats another problem. Just leaks out the oil tube when its tipped over. So...any soltuions to these woes?
Got my hands on this here 2300, pretty good shape other than the bar tabs on either side of the bar stud. They are broken. Pretty cool little top handle. Just not sure if I will be able to find another one to fix it. View attachment 528705 View attachment 528707
