IEL Pioneer Sign
I finally lucked out and was able to get an IEL doubled sided sign. It is in excellent shape. Have other but nothing with the bright colours like this. Also acquired a couple P41 that run and a couple more for parts.

Nice looking P41s, oh and the sign is cool too.
Nice thermometer here to go with the sign: Vintage 1957 Pioneer Thermometer Chain Saw Sign | eBay
Spendy though. :smile2:

Air filter that might work on a 400?
I finally got around to taking the plastic off and air blasting out my 400 today, also hit the chain some with a file, but it has been rocked and wore down bad, need some more there..
Anyway, I only found three minor defects, it needed the gas tank vent hose with the dealie in the end, luckily I had a spare in a junker saw. The drive sprocket is worn but still a few cuts in it..and there is NO air filter. I found some dregs of deteriorating looks like foam in there, that's it. I have no idea what one even looks like, or what holds it, or anything. Just the carb and that plastic piece around it..
By any chance do any old poulan or husky air filters cross reference, would they work? I have some junkers to pick through and the shop in town has a good boneyard for husky and poulan. Also, any place to download an IPL for this saw? Heck, does this company still exist for that matter?
Says Pioneer partner 400, I am colorblind, girlfriend says it is half way between yellow and orange colored (still not totally clean yet, man the grime is embedded in the plastic, gonna need to really soak all that stuff).
Looks like a nice saw. Pro quality? The engine will come on out, four screws in the bottom of the case (looks like it to me anyway) I burnt the muff screen clean and opened the outlet there a little with tin snips and needle nose. Fires up runs good for a bit then wants to idle down and stop. But, this is as far as I have gotten with it too, proly still needs new fuel line and filter and clean carb. Exhaust side piston looks just swell.
thanks in advance!

That's it
That's it,. thanks man! Now I can take a gander at my "detached pieces".
edit: for anyone who wants to know, the air filter assembly cross references with husky 40,45 and 49. I was able to snag a used assembly (there's a round with a foam piece or square with pleats, but the screw holes are the same) from the sawshop boneyard in town. Thanks again for the IPL!

IEL twin or two?
Vintage Rare Twin Cylinder Chainsaws
I can help if you are willing to cover my gas and shipping (time is free). I am NOT a mechanic with a great deal of experience. I do know how to remove a muffler and spark plug then peer at a piston and cylinder.

New owner of a P41
I am a total newbie to the site. I picked up a P41 (P41H) for $60 last week to get me going on a landscaping project that required cutting 6x6's. Really had no idea what I was buying. Its my first chainsaw, and I don't see myself becoming a collector but I can see how tinkering with these things can get a bit addicting. I just have enough hobbies already... I am just hoping that in the end I have a good reliable tool that will get the job done in a lot of situations. I do a lot of off-roading so I have wanted to add one to my rig for some time now.
Spent $40 on a new chain. Adjusted the carb to about as good as it gets without re-building it (bogs a bit at full throttle) and so far it is getting the job done without too much trouble.
Once I am finished my landscaping project I think I will take the time to pull the carb and re-build it and hopefully take care of that little bog.
The other thing I would like to do to it is fix the clutch. Right now the clutch doesn't work at all so the chain is spinning as soon as the cord is pulled. The safety aspect is one thing, but I think it also means that I need to have the idle set quite a bit higher than I otherwise would to keep it from stalling out.
So far my searches haven't turned up much for clutches for the P41. Is it possible to repair/rebuild the clutch that I have, or are there several other Pioneer models that would have the same clutch so I could expand my search?
Any other suggestions?
