Got my $25 Stihl 015 running today... any day we bring a saw back to life is a good day.

What is this turning into! Bash all the other brands thread? lol I can easily tell that y'all haven't gotten you daily dose of 2-smokes yet.

You're right I need to run a saw. I become real moody without them

 

[LonestarStihl]

And you right, it's fun to poke fun every now and then lol, only thing is I love everything so I can't say anything bad about any of them lol

And everyone that's been in the thread a while knows I love picking the Poulan guys

That's awesome! It's a good Saw just to clean up and be a convo piece if anything else!

Yeah it's a pretty cool looking old saw, and heavy! I couldn't imagine limbing with that thing I am going to see if anyone wants any parts off it, and if not I will take the bar off it and put it up over my workbench, then the saw can go to the shed. I don't have time to get into restoring an old saw these days. My first priority is getting my 272 running again.

Think its the same as my two 600 and 620 both are 103 cc as well.
Have you had yours running?

It runs, but I haven't "Ran" it because the fuel tank is kinda corroded, have to clean it and put a liner in it first. The 650 was the last run of that series.

Gonna hopfully check mine out tomorrow and attempt to start it.
Dont look like many parts available on ebay. Hope it dont need much.

I just fired mine through the carb so I know it will run, might just need to rebuild the carb and put new fuel line and filter in with a new liner in the tank. And for those who have never seen the dual filters on these pioneers the globe filter is pretty cool.

Gotta sediment bowl just like a tractor. The McCulloch 3-25 had a sediment bowl too

 

[Kensie1988]

And got the new clutch on the 925 and ready to get fine tuned in some wood!

Forgot to mention that the stihl in the pic was not part of the 12 saws.

But I would say you Stihl got a great deal

 

[Kensie1988]

I'm picking this beauty up next Saturday!

 

[46 Poulan]

You struck the mother lode--I am sure there are rare needed parts in there--guess points or plug.

Heres some better pics. The one with the red handle ran last year and the rest he never touched.
Notice the stuff taped to the handle of the big saw. Kinda funny.

This one must have the stone removed. I fiddled with it while chain was moving and didnt seem to do anyting.

You could make a high low shifter with the knob-mark it H---L..Cut a log at half speed in L then cut wide open throttle in H-Impress people-cool idea

 

[46 Poulan]

I got me a. If pioneer the other day as well, I'm really excited about it, I'm going to call it "Goliath" or "Behemoth"
