Wow, those are great saws, I've had a couple of them. I now have a very very clean 3450. Had on cl. For cheap. Not any calls. I'll hang onto it till right before cutting season. And hey that's the best price.

Replaced fuel hose n filter.
Gave a good wipe down.
Sharpened the chain.
Will run off the bottle but I'm afraid the carb needs rebuilt and/or seals replaced.
Are seals even available? Expensive?

Timken 253747 seals and there inexpensive
Carb kit is K-10HDB

You replaced the fuel line, did you replace the vent line and duckbill check valve?

530026119 is the part number for the duckbill valve. $2.50 from your Poulan or Husqvarna dealer.

You probably will want to pull the oiler out and replace the pickup line as well.

Those write ups I done are still out there. All the pictures got lost though. I still have the pictures but there is no way to edit the old post to put them back in.

Mark, thank you for your work. I Googled Poulan 3400 fuel line last year as as absolute FNG and reached your posts. So far my 30 year old and a NOS from GuidoSalvage are up and terrifying the neighborhood with another one ready to come up in the wings. Love this site. Thanks again.
