"You Suck" Thread 2024"--Pics required!

[Bob Hedgecutter]

I posted this in the pioneer thread, but here's my "you suck" that I've been hiding for a few months:

$185(probably overpaid), had to source a recoil, need to pull the broken exhaust studs, and I'm going try the "Husqvarna 365" coil mod that I found on here scrolling through the forum. I also have a pioneer bar(that's been sitting for a few years, it came with another saw) that I think will fit but I have no idea what size it is. All I know is it's big(to me) and I need to get a picture of said bar eventually when i finally drag it inside to actually finish putting it together..

And yes, it's rough. But I think it'll be worth it.

I fail to see the "suckage"

Traded my MontgomeryWard 3.7 (rebranded Mac 610) for these, going to make 1 good saw out of them both

Those big reed saws are fun to run.

Poulan Pro 455 - $60 no haggle price - guy says it ran last time he used it - need to tear into it, but feels like there’s at least some compression there. Been wanting to find another Poulan/Pioneer since I sold the P41 I had a few years back, and this certainly fit the bill.

Well, a little gas down the carb and it fired off - filled the tank and it started right up. Probably need to pull the carb apart and check the innards, and the piston isn’t perfect, but it’s a runner! Now, time to clean her up and get a decent bar and chain on.

Will have to wait till it gets here- but I apparently just bought a running and complete 100cc+ saw for $83:30 of ours (USD $48:16).

How much was shipping? Sounds like a great deal. Can you tell us the make and model?

Shipping might be another half the saw price- all will be revealed when it gets here.
