Don't know if this qualifies for U suck.

This little Poulan Pro s25 belonged to dad, he's been dead 20 yrs and didn't run it for a few years before that. I pulled it out of the shed, pulled off the top, will need a breather. While I had it open, I put some mix in the carb and it run on the second pull. I think it'll be fun to clean it up and get it running.

This one I found and it followed me home, $20. Start rope was only about 14" long so I replaced that, wasn't oiling the chain, but was putting out oil behind the bar and dripping off the bottom of the saw. The oiler tube was misplaced and it works fine since I fixed. The chain and bar is toast, bar is .058 and chain is .050. I put a 20" 0325 NK bar and chain on and it cuts pretty good. Will add pictures in next post.

Great little saws.

Here's the pics of the PS540, still has the bar and chain that I later replaced.

I think you guys need to take a visit out to the shop. We have two sheds packed with saws... everything from 2 man to newer toss aways. Can't even walk around without stepping on saws. I don't have time to do anything with them.

Great little saws.

Thanks, I know that's the original bar and pretty sure it's the original chain.

I'd like any info that I can get on the 540, can't find detailed specs or IPL, would sure like to find both.

Well I'll give you a You Suck on the Dolmar but not on your pops Poulan!

I've got a S25 that is green. It was a freebie, but unfortunately is missing the recoil assy. It sure is well engineered & easy to work on. But, then again, after tinkering around with a Mac 6, anything is easy to work on. The only reason I keep that Mac 6 around, is to add a different color to my little fleet of top handles.

Did you ever find the 076 in the dogpile? You were gonna take a look after Christmas.

Glad you're getting your dad's saw running!

Been cleaning on the little Poulan to see what all I need. Air filter, fuel line and that looks like it's gonna be fun snaking that through all the twist and turns. I think I was wrong on that being the original chain, so I'll get a new chain and sprocket, the bar cleaned up well though.

See if this works.

Thanks Jon, I completely forgot about the "Beg for manuals" thread, I should have looked there.

I was haywire, mine's a 25DA.

I was hoping to somewhat sort a bit, but I seriously have not had time. I'm in Maine right now, had to come down to be with family. It's sort if given me a break, unfortunately not for good reasons.

I replaced the fuel line and primed the little Poulan and it's running. I pulled the clutch to put on a new sprocket and one of the clutch springs is missing, part #530023381 and it's NLA so if anybody has one to part with, let me know I'm lookin'.
