Nik's Poulan Thread

[Andyshine77]

That guy from NC had a couple pallets of those NOS 3450. I had informed folks about them way back on CR. They were about a 1/3 of the ebay prices he is asking. I know a guy that bought like 5 of them from him at the cheaper prices.

I made an offer and he excepted, I paid 225 shipped, still a little high, but not bad.

I drop by CR regularly the past few weeks. Lots of good info there.

Andre if you ever get a chance. Check the carb for me. I have a 1 owner LN 3450 that came with a 137 carb and 180psi stock.
First one I seen with 137 on 54cc.
I pulled the oem 20" off for my 16"

i used my 3500 with a scored top end today with my son and as usual it performed fantastic, Cut up a nice oak that had blew over and was facing downhill, needed to cut it from the top down until almost at the rootball which pulled out of the ground,

Ran my 3400/3700 bow build Saturday, ran great and my back didn't hurt afterwards. Had to drop the trees with my brother's Stihl farm boss, dang that saw is too heavy when making a waist-high right side cut.

If you had your 5200 running they would be on the ground before you could let off the trigger.

I got banned from this thread for two years when I mentioned Stihl Farmboss.

Lol, well it not my saw, got more Poulans than anything else. Got one Stihl, back pack blower. One Husky split boom brush cutter, two Mac's. The rest is all green or made by green.

Waiting on my mounts, slow at getting them, other parts I ordered looks like they finally got those in the warehouse so now I'm waiting for the complete order to be shipped. Maybe I'll get to work on it some more next Saturday, got to find the fuel tank vent. I put it somewhere so I wouldn't loose it, now I can't remember where I put it. Took me 30 minutes to find the throttle linkage. Been looking around for a knob for the top cover but haven't found one I like.

I needed that full wrap for sure on the two trees I cut.

I looked at one of those, just couldn't justify the cost for something I wouldn't use but now and then on large oaks.

"In the warehouse"..."waiting to be shipped" sounds like another Jack's order to me.

This FW side 306 seal looks so peaceful sitting in its bore for 45 plus years...but it was a leaker & then kicked my azz for almost an hour before it decided to come out!

The modified screwdriver failed, the $$tihl puller failed, the Lisle puller failed, but finally got it out with a needle-nosed set of visegrips clamped onto a tab of the torn metal.

Holy WOW, that was a tough one, I sometimes screw a drywall screw in it and pry up with a small bar
