Funniest thing I saw today while turning into the bank, a Stihl chainsaw in the middle of the road with autos dodging it, wasn't much left of it. Looked like a few trucks thought they could straddle it. All I saw was maybe the motor with the rear handle hanging on. Not much left of it. When I came back out, it was gone except for a few pieces. Guess someone will learn to tie a saw down or close the tailgate. If it had been an old Poulan, I may have stopped traffic and got it.

That may be a good way to get rid of my saws, pile them into my truck , leave tailgate down and drive on backroads until empty!! Probably not, someone could get seriously injured by a flying bar etc, never mind maybe just take them to the landfill, I could donate them to the goodwill and get a tax write off

Found when you could buy these full wrap handles they were listed at $155 a piece.

Guess thats why they are high NOS.

Being I never had a gen1 52. What is the difference if any in the full wrap on 52 to gen2 gen3 54 85?

Number is different in 52 but same on 54 85. So maybe the number just superseded?

 

[RedneckChainsawRepair]

I just got off phone with my poulan guru on this series. All good.
All 3 heading my way.

 

[RedneckChainsawRepair]

All 3 handles were SF after posting pic yesterday.

Just so folks know they cant stop sending PM's asking for 1. All SOLD.

Thanks for interest. I will let those in line know when more turn up.

I use these

#215 o ring

1-1/16"ID x 1-5/16"OD 0.139" Cross Section Nitrile Standard O-Ring

Some NOS Poulan 5400 full wraps. Will work on 5200 8500 and others in series. Like the grip on the gen 2 series 5400 the best. Not smooth like earlier and not foam like later.

 

[RedneckChainsawRepair]

Got lucky on the nice parts saw I took in for some labor on a saw.
I could hear the rattle in the muffler. Didnt care myself. Parts are parts to me.
Anyhow #5 is a runner now too. Still need to run all new lines though.

 

[s sidewall]

Yep, lose or missing screw will make it rattle, I rattle now and then myself. Nice wraps too.

Saw two new micro series oiler crankcase check valves (PN 530069142) go off on auction for $8.99.

Those things are getting hard to find with a good duckbill, but you can rebuild them if you take your time.

 

[Todd Loosli]

That's why I make new ones for people

 

[jerry quinn]

I am looking for a couple choke knobs for the 3400`s. I have two saws that their broke on and cant find any.
