Have you cleaned the carb in an ultrasonic cleaner? I have occasionally put a carb that looked spotless in an USC and seen clouds if fine debris come smoking out as soon as I turned the cleaner on
Might work to free up a check valve.

Might work to free up a check valve.
Poulan 415 quad port 65cc that was sold with 24" new. Sold it to a friend needing a saw to run a 24" on yesterday.
Later sold ones with yellow partner air filter cover. With the updated tank and air filter set up right before air injection one.

Last time I check, that valve was still available. If you had another saw with same carb, can't hurt to swap it over and see what happens.

I'll have to hire an exorcist if I use my wifes jewelry cleaner on the carb. Going to take the check valve out tomorrow and take a look.
I planned that already.I already ordered a check valve for the saw. Worked 12 hrs today or else I would have done it today.
This HDB just needed the dias and cleaned. Maybe you will get lucky and fines just plugging if you already put in new dias?
After cleaning the fines out of the valve.

Drywall screw I managed to pick out the retaining ring.Worked the edge,lifted straight up.replaced the screen.Pretty easy.Valve looked perfect(black,hatch pattern)Moves easily and flat.Did get a small booger out of somewhere when I blew out the passages lightly.When rotating the saw nose up it gained 1000 rpm or so briefly.Runs smoother but still lacking rpms.
Do they still make piston and cylinders for the 2000 top handle saws. I picked up a few and would to rebuild one.
Where dos a guy get a set of (new)piston rings for a 3700?Switched carbs on both 3.7 craftsman saws.The rebuild carb (suspected bad) runs to top end on the known good saw,The nonrebuild carb on the suspect saw runs to mostly top end with some high end hesitation but only barely, but not perfect.Pulled cylinder,looks great, only the rings seem to have little tension although made 135psi.Surely someone has to sell these rings and have stock.I still think it crazy as hell someone doesnt make a cylinder kit for such a well designed saw.
Last ring I bought were from Jacksmallengines but I image he's sold out after I mentioned on here he had a few left.

Suspect saw pulls like a gorilla when cutting. dunno, bought one of those 1184 base gasket sets and sharpened the chain, managed to put the chain guides on properly, now it oils.
Team Poulan, I've posted this on the "I saw it on CL/eBay Thread" but wanted to share here for our Poulan collectors or CAD sufferer's. "Three Poulan Bow Saws currently on Richmond Virginia's Craigslist. Located in Montpelier, about half an hour away. One is a 3400/3800, the other two appear to be either 306/245's. All three for $300.00." Just sharing and there it is. Max.
Are you talking about the thin rings or the thick rings
Thin ring 3700 with chrome bore
Thick ring 3.7 and 3800 with chrome piston.
Thin ring 3.7 branded Craftsman.1982.
Are you the same guy on FB asking? I just sent a link to some for thin ring 3700.
Not me.Feel free to send me that link,LOL.
Can someone tell me which Walbro carb was used in the 3400?I'm going to my brother's in a couple weeks to see if I can get his saw up & running again.Thanks!
I need to know for certain what carb is in the 3400.
Not the HDA-49, thats for the newer poulans after 3400.
