Used my dads S25DA today
We had some kindling to cut up today so I figured it was a good time to grab the S25. This was the second saw i re-built, its also a newer model with electronic ign. I did the carb, fuel lines, filters, and intake gasket under the reed. I gave the orig 16" bar to my buddy with his S25 cause i thought i had a new one that would fit, of course it was for the 'bigger' poulans and didnt fit
. So for now its wearing a 14" with 3/8 lp. Wow this saw rips. I had in some 4'' oak and it just digs in, i need to get it in bigger wood! Here it is with my partner next to it.

Poulan Bar ID
Can anyone help me identify this bar, as to which one it actually is? There is no pic with the add, just a number, and I havn't been smart enough to find it on the parts lists I have.
Heres the ebay link, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300344756342&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Thanks, Gregg

Greg, a quick look by me this morning shows what ever that bar is, it is obsolete.
Is $35 a good price on a 20" bar? I guess it would depend if it was a laminate, a control tip, a power match or a Windsor wouldn't it.
Sorry but I have little patiance for a seller like that, that cannot post a picture.
If you know what your looking for you can stumble on a deal or two as I just got a Oregon Power match 20" bar for like $12 shipped.
It says Redmax on it and probably no one knew what it fit, but it is indeed a D176 Poulan/Echo mount bar.

Yea, Joe, my S25da also impressed me with its power. Surprising for such a small saw. I cut some 12 in. oak and it was a smooth as butter.

245a
Thanks Jack
Unreal collection!!!!!, the 245`s cought my eye !!, i have the 245a in a dayton i purchased from a guy back in the early eightys and run like a champ until last week, getting ready to go thru it and i need a few parts, im looking for the side fly wheel and flywheel cover and a piston do you have any parts or could you guide me in the right direction ?Since it was so nice here today, I was in the back of the shop putting some things away and I thought I would drag all the Poulans out in the daylight to take a photo of them all together since I have had several request to do so.
Bout worked up a sweat, not really realizing how they accumulate.
So here they are, there all runners except the 245 in the front row which is the next Poulan project.
Thanks Jack

That part # number on the parts lookup that I use actually shows several instances of low kickback chain, not a bar. Hard to say which is correct or if he copied part number incorrectly. Seems here that the risks outweigh the reward since the price is high and his feedback rating is less than stellar. Some of his feedback reflects slow shipping and items that are aftermarket when the buyer was expecting an OEM part. You might contact him with your email address to see if he can provide additional info and pic. If you'll PM me what saw you need the bar for, I'll see if I can help.
Steve
Thats kinda what I found, the number is a chain number. I don't NEED a new bar, just thought if it was an original NOS bar, might be nice just to have one for historical purposes.
He does have it listed with a "best offer" also, so he might take alot less, who knows.Thanks, for the offer though Steve.
Gregg,
Thanks Mark, thats kinda the way I feel too. Pictures are worth a thousand words! hate buyin something I can't see.
My hope was, it was an old stock Poulan bar, that Says Poulan Sprocket Tip on them, like a 4000 had when new, just for collector purposes.
Gregg,
I only have 1 spare 245 piston right now, but it is probably going into the 245 in the front row soon. If you watch there was a seller on ebay selling gasket sets pretty right. If they only have the 306 sets listed, grab one of them as they have pretty much all you need including the crank seals.
I'm going to PM you some info.
That Dayton in the back row is a 245 and the smaller one in front is a S25CVA.

No, I think I am just going to pull it completely apart, blast and paint it, replace the gaskets, bearings, rings etc. That should fix it...

Poulan is owned by Husqvarna, right?
Husqvarna is now owned by BMW, right?
Therefore, my Poulan 4620AX is really a BMW in disguise.
I should get some BMW emblems to put on my saw.
Oops! they cost more than I paid for my saw! :jawdrop:
FWIW, my other BMW is a '98 K1200RS and my other other BMW is a '93 R100R with sidecar and my wife's BMW if an F650CS. I think she's put more miles on it than I've put on mine this year.
So... Enjoy your BMW - I certainly enjoy mine!
