Pioneer chainsaws

[Arrowhead]

I haven't checked with a dealer yet, but do you know if they still sell the carburetors for these saws. The one on this saw needs replaced or a total rebuild.

Most likely it's a Walbro WJ. Rebuild kits are widely available for them, I'm sure you can find a complete new carb on ebay if you go that route.

I bought a large box of NOS Pioneer parts. I'm going to need some help ID'ing some of them.
First off, anybody know what this filter may fit. I have a bunch of them... if anybody needs one. Free to any Pioneer lover in need.

Is that an airfilter or is it a tank wick?

looks identical to the P20, P25, 1073 970 and Holiday filters to me.

Hoping someone here can help me identify this saw. Was pointed in this direction by a few nice gentlemen. It's a target brand concrete saw but sure looks to be a Pioneer with a Target branding. The model number on it is T5214S. Anything is very helpful, thanks

that saw is sweet. I belong to a 4th generation tile and marble family. We have used Target saws for years. they are the best.

After some checking, you are correct.
If anybody needs one, let me know. I think I have about 50!

I'm hoping this is a good place to post this.

So today I was going through a box of pioneer parts that I have and found an ignition module for I believe some sort of Pioneer. I know it doesn't fit any of the models I have. I bought it from a guy that told me it was working and it was for a P-41. At the time I didn't know what the module on a P-41 looked like and after looking at mine, I don't think he did either. At least it's not like the one on the P-41 I have.

Is this a module that anyone may need. If someone could use it either to get a saw running or as a spare for a saw they have, I'd like it to go to someplace it could be used to keep an old Pioneer running.

That's an early P41 3 piece ignition. The early P50's used the same style.
I have a couple P41's, and I'm not sure if they use that style or not.
I'd be happy to give it a new home if it's still available.

 

[paul hill]

Yes its still available and you're welcome to it. Get me your address and I'll get it on the way in the next couple days.

 

[Arrowhead]

Address sent. Thanks!

Here are a couple of saws I used on this years woodpile. A P41 HP and a P61 Western. The Western had a broken crankshaft. I was able to find a P52 with a burnt piston and cylinder for a donated crank. The P41 HP required a new cylinder. The old one had come loose on the base and the bottom corner was broken. I replace the cylinder, piston and rings. Both saws are running great and made short work of the pile. the P41HP has a very noticable increase in power over a standard P41. I am going to do a mod to an extra standard 41 I have. Will replace the carb, exhaust and reed assemble. the HP also uses an 8 tooth sprocket for a faster chain speed.

Is the 41HP the one with the extra set of auxiliary transfers like the P-45?

 

[P62]

The P41HP has the larger exhaust and carb like the P51, and epoxy reeds, Same cylinder and ignition as a P41

Nice saws Jeff. I see you got that wood cut up without my help....

I left some splitting if you want to swing an axe . As you can see from the photo we have had a sunny weekend. They have been few and far between this winter.

 

[Acornhill]

ok, i picked up a NOS cylinder/piston/pin clips etc today, #476292, 405, 405 Plus, P42, correct? will it also fit in a P41 and a 455 frame? uses the same rings as P41, P42, etc. correct?

If you wish to get Jerry down, I would suggest you Photoshop out the snow and add a little greenery.

hey does anyone know where i can find a gas cap for a 1981 Pioneer farm saw? mine swelled up and while removing got destroyed. its really impossible to find parts on the net for these things,
Thanks in advance.

Mike.

The cylinder you bought will fit the P41, but, The coil mount is different. You will need to change the ignition and flywheel for it to work on a P41.
I can't say for sure on the 455. I believe it will bolt on ok a work if you use the ignition and flywheel from your 455. The cylinder porting and piston on the 455 is different It is a larger saw!
