Poulan 4200
Tne throttle lock on my 4200 is stuck all the way in. Can you split the rear handle/tank assembly to get at the throttle lock? Not sure if its worth the effort or I may be making more work than its worth.

That's all I did to mine, that and a SG 3/8" 16"chain. The saw shocks people!
Check it out
Don't know if anyone cares, but a while ago I said I wanted to build my own saw, well I did it yesterday. Here it is, it's an older Micro 25 with a brand new S23 Arbor Pro cylinder and 2 ring piston, also went with the newest clutch and sproket, and I'm running a good WT20 carb. I had gotten the cases and covers from ebay for $7, I had the crank and rod and ignition and all other stuff also had a AV handle layin around. The bar on there is an old 16" banana from a Craftsman with a Oregon safety chain, I have since ordered an Oregon 14" Pro 91 with a 140VXL chain. Anyway it's cool as hell and has some decent power for 38cc.

Nice looking Micro there, Dave! :chainsawguy:
I pulled the muffler and plug on the 2800 I got last week. The inside of the engine is spotless! Cylinder is perfect, no carbon on the piston or exhaust port.
I have to fix the cracked fuel line, I'm going to replace all of them, if one's bad they all are.

Thanks, I got the Mac 6A about 10 years ago free as it didn't run, I replaced the points with an electronic ignition and found a brand new carb on ebay for $7, the saw runs really good.
Dave, I care! Nice things saving old Poulans 
Its also nice to build your own, I applaud you.
I'll bet that thing is a little ripper!
Jim, glad to hear you got a good P/C, anything else is easy to fix.

I got mine free as well, it needed a recoil pulley. Funny thing is that I over looked the saw and let it sit at the shop for a few months. It was in a small case, I assummed it was just another Mini Mac. lol
I'm not sure that I can say for you. One mans junk is another mans treasure.
Besides the 8500 I would like a 6900 or a 7700 as well. I also think my 71-A is cool as hell. Then theres that certain gear drive on my wish list.
Ok, guys get that dang Mac out of here!
Well Steve, at least he didn't post a picture of it all by itself.
I like lots of them too but I'm not going to the Pioneer thread and post a picture of my Poulans there.

Haha lol, I only own three non poulan saws, the Mac 6, a Homie 240, and a 55cc Jenn Feng sears saw. The Homie is sold, and the 55cc is going to my step pop for free. My next buy I want a MINT 3400, and am willing to pay a few bucks for it.

If this wasn't the Poulan thread I'd tell you two senior members that you're behaving like people that dismiss Poulans because of the recent saws, which we all know is not smart. Just as there is something about the lime green ones, there's something about yellow ones also, if they are older anyways.
That said, keep this about Poulan. Like about how we favor the green ones over the yellow, at least most of the time. Anybody have some spare parts for a 4000, like a coil assy? Does it have points? I can find that out meself also. Found one. And a 306A. And what I think is a 2800. No yellow. Yee hah!
