Speaking of that i have the starter pawls, pins and springs for your 925 if you want to wait ill throw them in the box with the 306. Otherwise i can ship them separate

That will work, it will keep you from having to pay postage.

Sweet! Keep y'alls eyes peeled for a good Poulan Countervibe preferably 3700 and above, that's right at the top of my list, after that I'm not sure what I should get next. But don't go looking too hard until next year lol. I'll be tapped out for awhile after December.

Hey @txtroop i don't know if you remember seeing this on Craigslist or not, but it was a Homelite with a Bow over in Tyler for $70. Now it's on EBay for $450 using the same photo that was on Craigslist.

Hah classy. That sucks that someone just grabbed it to make a buck but I guess that's life right?

I know, I feel like that happens a lot on Craigslist and at pawnshops. I was going to pickup a C-72 with 36" bar from south Louisiana and it slide before I could get it. The pawn shop wanted $119 for it. I keep waiting for it to pop up on eBay. It sucks when people who care nothing about the saws get to them first before the collectors, and all just to make a buck.

To this day there is nothing that beats that old school Poulan Green, I like how your vice is the same color!

 

[Boomer 87]

I honestly think the poulan green is what first attracted me to poulan saws, i love that color green. I agree with you next you should look for a countervibe like that one, they made a large number of the 3400s, some parts are NLA but theres a mountain of used stuff or NOS still out there.

The green poulans remind me of 2 stroke kawasaki dirtbikes i used to ride. Kensie you should try to get a Poulan Tim Allen signature tools Bad Boy.

Haha that's awesome! I'll have to keep my eye out for one of those!

 

[Kensie1988]

So I have a new symptom on my 925, when I give it gas it keeps accelerating after I let go of the throttle. It runs really hard for about 1-2 seconds then it idles back down again. Any ideas?

 

[Boomer 87]

Kinda sounds like an air leak

 

[Boomer 87]

Ive not had one do that to me but im thinking air leak

 

[Kensie1988]

That's kind of what I was thinking, now I just have to figure out where. How many Poulan 306a's do you have?
