Well, I got my 1636 Skil frankinsaw (S25DA) cleaned, painted, and assembled. fueled it up and tried to light it up. No joy. No spark on the grounded plug. Had spark when I got it 5 years ago and couple weeks ago although recent spark was unimpressive. Gonna do some checking for shorts but if that doesn't pan out I'll be looking for a electronic coil.

Here's what I have... I can't see how this is an automatic pump. Did someone stick an S25 starter on a regular, non-auto 25? .


From an old post way back in this Poulan sticky thread...

Modifiedmark said:
Do you mean a 25D compared to a S25DA? The DA means deluxe automatic.

A 25D is just a manual oiler. A 25 is 2.1 CI and a S25 means its 2.3 ci.

I hope this helps, I just come in and checked this board while getting my 45 auto to fix this 3400 that I can't get to start.

so how many screw hold the fuel tank/carb box/handle assembly to the cranckcase? I've counted three, all in the carb box, but it doesn't want to come loose. am I missing any or do I just need to use a BFH? thanks

BTW, congratulations on your new granddaughter. grandchildren are more fun than your own children cause when you get tired of them you can pass them on. just sayin
