Nik's Poulan Thread

I'd like to find a Bad Boy to go with them one day, even if it doesn't run.

You either love or hate the color scheme, I think it looks great. This one is ported & really nice to run. I have a BadBoy bar I won’t use because it might get dirty, lol.

If you want to keep piling up those parts saw Bob, I will stop on my way to Tennessee next year and take them off your hands. My latest quest is for the trigger and throttle lock/release. I have maybe 3 or 4 functional out of 8 or 10 saws here.

I also try to keep a few clutch covers, starters, coils, and clutches on hand since I seem to get those saws coming through on a regular basis in need of repair/replacement.

While looking through the attic this afternoon for some Jonsereds parts saws I was also reminded of several 5200's, 4000, 4200?, 3.7/18, 6900? and other CV models that need attention. Maybe we will have a long winter...

Mark,

If there is anything I have for the wild things or similar poulans that you could use, I'd be glad to sit on them for you. I will snap some pics when time allows.

Finally got it together and sealed. Kept finding leaks. The muffler was cut open and the front was missing so i fabbed up a cover in stainless, polished it and laser etched a poulan logo on it. Holy cow this thing hauls! Buried it in some 28” doug fir and couldn’t stop it. Plugging the governer gave it some serious rpms too. Gonna make a full wrap for this one too. Just need a sticker kit from sugar creek and it’ll be done and ready for some spring buckin’.

Wow your lucky day. I know a guy in NC just showed me one. He was asking how much he should sell for. Which I told him what I sold them for over the years. So it wont be stupid like you see these folks selling and buying at today.
It's not perfect or a shelf queen looker. But looks all there with decals I could see from few pics.

So check your NC FB marketplace and craigslist etc. If you cant find it I will contact him in my chainsaw repair group FB and get info for ya to contact him at.

Some of my past ones.

Oh well, thanks for the heads up though.

He gave me his email so check PM. He just got a 380 in.

Member is looking for a PR 5020 service manual. Is there something close to help him?

Thanks for the heads up, I think I'm going to hold out for a 3750 though. I want that color scheme and decals to go with my Wild Things.

I'm in a chainsaw repair group on Facebook, it might be yours.

If it is that huge one with the chainsaw signs as a banner. That be one I started in 2013 when I noticed websites were dying off.

Jim is there too the guy in NC.

Never seen one for early or later 5020.

They are like a cheap cousin saw to husky 450 so maybe that will help them do what needs.

Yeah, I'm in that one and a couple others.

Anyone have a source for the nitrile nylon carb diaphragm material? Need to make a diaphragm for my 4000 oil pump.

 

[heimannm]

I was able to get some carburetor diaphragm thickness material (0.006"?) from American Rubber Products. https://americanrubberproducts.com/rubber-coated-fabric/

I will check tomorrow to see if I still have any, I might be able to send you enough to make several (assuming you'll send me a couple in return).

[Snowchaser]

Absolutely!

@Todd Loosli if I recall right had made some to be able to sell also.
