Nik's Poulan Thread

[s sidewall]

So is anyone here bidding on this 5200? Just wanted to check to make sure before I put my bids in, don't want to step on anyone's toes. It's the last Saw at the tippy top of my list that I want before I take a break, I currently have all the others on the way to me.

Love it when it fires up and shuts down, just hope the gas tank is ok and p/c is good. Go for it, there's a few on the bay right now.

I sent them a message about the P/C, hopefully they will answer it.

Asked about the gas tank and if anything is visual broken, av mounts, case.

You need to jump on the one for 650, don't think anyone would out bid ya. I've been watching the prices on the 4200, 5200 and 8500 series on the bay. Someone has relisted a 4200 case again for the same price as last, they can't take a hint on lowering the price of they want to sale it.

I was eyeballing that one, but I have one to fix up already. So if you want it go for it. But if you bow out let me know.

I like my 5400, I did pay less than $650 for it including the NOS 36" Poulan sprocket nose bar.

What's your best noodling saw? I have to do that frequently with gnarly wood I can't split with an axe. I just finished a bunch of Linden which is crap to begin with and splits along the growth rings. Cuts fast with a saw though.

I would say the higher RPM saws that I have modified. In the 60cc range I would use my 3500 or 3750. In the 83cc range I would use my 505.

The PP455 series of saws will clear noodles like nobody's business.

Not me I have an early 5200 already. It does not see much use.

My 336 clears them well and the 036 does almost as well. I find the best I have is a MAC 7-10. I'll have to give one of the Pioneers a try next time. I did try a little Micro which jammed up in about 5 seconds.

I'm lucky where I live as they are rare and have no rep with people (Poulan junk) so if they do come up, they are cheap.

The one i got was the first Big Poulan I've ever seen, see more Huskies and Stihls which I'm not a big fan of.

I bought my 4200 $50, 5200 $75, 8500, $100. I felt pretty lucky.

Lot of the guys see that one comment and laugh.

One guy and his wife come in and she got alittle mad at us laughing at the different ones hanging up about wives.

I will let you know!

I know exactly what you mean lol

Well I'm bowing out of the 5200 I posted, there is a 4200 on there I might try to get as long as no one else wants it, the seller couldn't verify the condition of the piston so I won't be bidding on it, if it has a scorched piston then it might as well be useless
