Poulan Countervibe 3400 "Fun"!

[hotshot]

Hi,
Anyone know what cylinder clearance is on this Saw???

I have the Service Manual, but not a lot of Tech Info, in there.

Of course if the C/P is pooched .

The carb is pulling fuel, if the Coil wasn't so expensive, I would buy one even though this one test fine.

Should be a maximum of 0.004” like most sloppy 2 strokes, so the piston skirt should measure 1.876” for a 1.880” nominal bore on a 3800.

The ignition coils are readily available on fleabay for $25 for used OEM, if you want to try swaptronics...

Hi,
Thought I would follow up on this thread...

Ordered a good used Coil and the Saw started up on the 3rd pull!

I think I was dealing with a few problems which is probably not that uncommon!

Thanks again for the great help, learned a few things on this one!!!
