Nik's Poulan Thread

[jerrycmorrow]

what saws are compatible with the 3450 insofar as the chain brake?

 

[8433jeff]

A new one might be $30, shipped if available. Won't have any stickers on it. If you want one, ask.

 

[w8ye]

The Poulan 3450 and 3750 are pretty much the same saw except for the piston & cylinder

 

[67 Mustang]

well got this at a shop i get parts from for 5 bucks new fuel line clean carb good to go first poulan of this size nice feel to it i think its a 3700 or 3400 it starts with 358 model number

You done good! Have some rep. If it's 358.356091 it's a 3800.

 

[w8ye]

The saw is made up like a 4000

Joe, thats got to be one nice saw.

I hope to have a couple new ones next week. I think you will like them, I'll let you know when it happens.

Ones yellow as well.

Yeah, I like this saw a lot. I have only cut a few skids with it so far so it hasn't gotten a good test yet.
I did just finish that Micro with a brake though. I cleaned it up and under that dirt was a low hour saw. The original 12" bar tells the story of the use this saw got. I put a new fuel line on it, filter and adjusted the carb a bit. It runs good but needs more tuning. Only reason I could think that this saw was at the dump was maybe cause the starter pawls werent engaging (wd40 fix) or that the fuel line was broken. Either way someone tossed a nice saw.
I also have 2 S25DA projects going...with 4 saws. 2 S25DAs, 2 S25CVAs. Gonna get 2 good runners out of 2.

Micro w/brake cleaned up NICE!

I also like the row of 25's. Shows three different XXV top handle styles.

Two CVA's. One early "very curved" 25 on the far right (corroded). One later "less curved" 25 (second from right). IIRC, the non-CVA Craftsman 25 family saws like my 2.1A are even "less curved" than that saw. Almost as "straight" as the CVA handles.

 

[sawfun9]

I have three s25cv's, two that need pistons due to metal transfer. The third is in excellent shape with a new 16" bar and non safety chain all run, one needs a fuel line and maybe a carb kit. They look nice and I'd hate to scrap them, if somebody's interested let me know. I'd like $100 + shipping for all three or trade for Husky 2100 parts. Also if somebody wants a nice Craftsman/Poulan 3700 (18" bar and new non safety chain) that looks good and runs great in it's original Craftsman black case. I'd like $100 + shipping for it or trade for Husky 2100 parts. I will try to get pic's in a few days.

Right on Aaron. The newer on the 2S25DAs has a blown p/c, the parts saw is good, just nasty case. The complete CVA i just got yesterday, needs isolators, the other one has good antivibe but puked its wrist pin and the clips took care of the p/c. both CVAs are points, the newer 25 is ss, gonna see if I can mount it on the ss coil on the points jug. I know the mounting is different, as are flywheels but I think Paul managed too do it.

Pp375

Can anyone tell me if the Poulan Pro 375 is the same as the the 4000? Thanks, Dan

PP 375 is similar to 3700, same displacement. 375 has a 4000 style carb cover & AF. PP 395 is the 4000 equivalent.

No, But its close. The 375 is the same as the 3700. The 395 is the same as the 4000. Although they all look similar. Since the 375 & 395 both use the same parts that were used on the 4000. Like the air filter setup, extra side outlet on the muffler, and I Think the heavy duty recoil starter palls or dogs. Only difference is the CC.
But They are a great saw!!! I have both models also.

Well, I see I was a little slow on the answer. That dern 67Mustang is just to FAST!:msp_thumbsup:

Hers a couple pics of them, 375 & 4000

Gregg,

 

[joe25DA]

Gregg has some awesome saws! The 3700 and 4000-375 and 4000 are great. I havent found a 3700 yet, but I do have a "custom" 3.7 that suits me good for now. The 375 is another one Im looking for. I do have a 395FP that will be next. Just needs a quick going over and cleaning. Runs great but i always go thru them. Heres a few pics.

Joe, I didn't know or remember, more than likely, mind fails me more all the time that you had a 395. Those are a little tougher to find than the 375. Nice saw! The red Craftsman looks great with that 4000 air filter on it! I wish those were easier to find. I did find one once, on ebay. I must have got lucky and seen it as soon as it was listed. Cause they don't last long on there, if and when they do show up.


Gregg,
