heck, i just used a harbor freight spray gun for application...

http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?itemnumber=47016

hooked up to the compressor and gave it a go! Worked wonderfully! Some say i needed a pressure regulator, moisture trap, etc. But i just threaded a standard quick release nipple in the air gun and hooked up my plain old hose to it.

Don't breathe the duracoat when you spray it. It's the most nasty stuff i've inhaled ever. Did bad things to me when i wasn't using a respirator. At least get out in the open air (did i just say that in the wintertime?)

$15???

Buy it now plus shipping = $305.

It should be like new and running for that.

Yup, it does cost more than a half dozen rattle cans, but I have used this gun probably a dozen times for different projects. When I'm done, I clean it up good and it's ready for another round. And it's really the ONLY way to use Duracoat. - it has to be mixed with its hardener before application.

I picked it up for $10 on sale once, but it's usually $15 like the link says.

That's a bit much, Nice lookin old poulan but not that nice.

Agreed. If I had bundles of cash I would buy it just because it is old and it is a Poulan, but alas all of my money has been spent on wasteful stuff like mortgage payments, food, etc.

Nope. The 4000, 3700, 3400 were still all Poulan.

You can buy that same model only in craftsman colors for same price online at sears. Here they will go on sale often and you can get one for 139.00 I have one of those pos saws. I know they have changed them up some but i wouldn't buy another one like the one i have.

I don't honestly know if thats good price or not Calvin. Them newer saws just don't intrest me, so I just don't pay attention to them. Probably right in the ballpark though.

Gregg,

Calvin,

They sell that same saw on the "Bay" all day long for like $129.99
The refurbs are cheaper than that.

Trying to find a sprocket bearing(530032002) for my 5200 and have only come up with NLA.
The race looks good but the bearing is missing one needle . Anyone know where one or two can be found? All my sources are NG. Compatible saws would be 306A, 4200, 4400,4900,5200 and 5400. Thanks.

306A oiler adjustment?

Anyway to adjust the oiler on these beasts? I got my new acquisition running tonite, and it sounds strong. Mounted the DD176 24" Oregon on it, but before I put the bar on, it left a bigger puddle than even my wide open Mac 10's...which means WAY too much bar oil.

Don't worry about it, oil is a LOT cheaper than bars and chains!
put a heavy plastic bag under that ol' girl when she sleeps and run it like you stole it.
