Nik's Poulan Thread

Saw doesn't look like it has been abused or anything, oil pump diaphragm looks perfect and the manual pump works great. I know I probably replaced both crank seals and rebuild the carb and replace fuel line and filters.

Acornhill - just curious why the newer PS chain would not work in the older system, seems they both just touch off the top of the tooth what makes the two incompatible? From what I know about the new set up, the chain has a carbide tooth to dress the stone and keep it in trim but I don't see why that would not work with the older stones as well.

Thanks,

Mark

It is the shape of the barracuda chain

Had a far bit of transfer, just glad it's a chrome bore.

I'm just looking at a picture, but I think you want to take a close look at that cyl again. It looks to me that the plating is tore up and missing in large spots on that bore.

I think there not interchangeable because the new PS chain is setup for it to take the rakers down at the same time as sharpening the top plate. The original PS chain still needed hand filing once in a while, rakers and gullets. Like the Auto Mac chain did too.

Well i went out and got the cylinder and fired up a bright light and inspected the bore, you're right Mark, cylinder is toast, chrome has come off.

Thanks for the offer, only problem with a parts saw is I would end up trying to get it up and going also.

I can’t even give it away. It’s not complete so it’s probably parts only. It’s the a/v version of your saw.

Yeah, that’s probably the best option. I’ll try to pull it apart this weekend.

No rush, just got this one pulled apart to inspect for any problems. Still got to put my 5200 together still. Had paint to wrinkle up on two places on the case when I clear coated it so I've got to sand it and repaint again. Figured paint would have cured after a few months.

Make sure the cyl you get has the same style ign. Cylinders are different for points and electronic ign.
