Took a chance on this poulan 4000 65cc being what the recoil, muffler and air filter cover told me in pics.
When seller showed me thin rings I ask pic for of piston. That told me 3700 or 4000.
Has someone’s home brews to high top cover and front of muffler. But shield covers it.
Also looks like they scratched on the upper lower exhaust but did really do anything from looks. Maybe they were just removing carbon.
Has metal 3400 clutch cover. 4000 pulley and flywheel. Only black tank 4000’s I had ever saw though had black decals too. Not the early blue. Anyone?
Looks like my parts saw handle has a use now.
Someone carved the stihl fuel filter to try and use. No wonder it fell off.
Got this wrong but least fuel line goes to carb.
Can see in the one pic where it must have set on a concrete floor for awhile.
Check and cleaning none through.
New one for me on these. Never had the long front handle bolt snap off inside the handle. From parts saw with hoping going to be used handle.
Drilling out broken bolt didn’t work. No threads left and over size bolt not a option.
Figures was my last handle in that style.
Bore check checked out 4000

Can't exactly remember how it works in the handle but can you go quite a bit bigger like 10mm? Lock tight that in there then drill out the centre back to standard?
Sad the top cover got "hot rodded"
I've got a spare handle but it's a little cist prohibitive to send it
