Nik's Poulan Thread

[RedneckChainsawRepair]

Paging @JeremiahJohnson...... I'm wanting to know if a poulan 365 should or should not have bar pads. Thanks, ADLM

As shown in ipl above notta. No metal bar plates.

I used the Dayton 401A to cut a tree down over the weekend, it performed great and vibrated my hands and ears off.

I know i asked this before but what chainsaw has the unlimited coil i need for a poulan pro 475 im actually wanting to get one

 

[astnmacgto]

I use partner 5000 500 jonsered 490 590 and husky 55 coils.

Think the husky crosses to these too. 40, 45, 50, 51, 55, 61, 257, 261, 262, 266, 268, 272

or use one from a 415 425 445 oem as unlimited already.

This one boomer

The only reason I knew where to look was because I had just read that page last night

Cool

Are there unlimited coils for the 3.7's?

Speaking of Dayton, is this worth it?

Yours is already unlimited. some of the poulan pro 475 had a green coil actually green in color they were limited to 10k. Nobody really know why they did it i guess to save pistons if someone ran it lean, its commonplace to switch it with a black coil and retune

I would offer him $30. Does that saw have points or is it electronic.

I have that exact same saw. That one looks in real nice shape like stated start at 30. id give 40 if it were me. If it has points they can be converted on those quickly for about 20 bucks with a bug.

 

[Efisher26]

I have zero interest in it besides $, what's it worth in working order? Anyone know?

There is a green and orange one local to me for $80 for both. Like he said zero interest in these myself.

@Boomer 87


Guy that was working with poulan during the 475 era told me why they supposedly did the low coils in 475. Weak pto side bearing set up. Reason for the update to 425 445 505 saws.

 

[Efisher26]

I have one other saw, a JD 55v that I cannot find a coil for. I work out of a shed and have 3 saws, too many tools and 5 snow blowers. I can't take stuff home all Willy nilly.... ;0)
