Here are couple pics of the Zama carb Hotshot speaks of. This is the only Poulan I have that has a zama on, all others are Walbro. This is on a Poulan Pro 375. Everything is in the same place for easy hook up and works great. I tried swapping with a Walbro just to compare....no difference in performance. Back then I put a new diaphragm kit in it, that was still available. Don't know about now. The Zama is a easy swap if ya run across one.
Gregg,
Just looked. HDB carb.
Threebond didn't help as I didn't get it inside the threaded hole far enough.However, 5 wraps of teflon tape tightened the high speed screw (for now).
I bought a pp220 that had a black goo on the muffler bolt threads . I don't know what it was but I have used the nondrying permatex no 2 form a gasket thread sealant on sloppy muffler bolts and bar studs and would try it on the sloppy threads of the carb adjust needles .

Just the XX made for dolmar 100. http://www.acresinternet.com/cscc.n...28b7ef5fbfd23c1588256b6200565597?OpenDocument
We have poulans in those colors too labeled under different names.
They did a 101 for them too
XX poulan crank seals.
Check me on this as I cant recall. But seen you looking for seals. If I recall right I think were same as ones used in micro saws. Someone correct me if I remember wrong please.
There is even aftermarket ones now too.
They can still be bought 530019059

I have to start with the oil tank pressure line because I can see that it is broken, the crankshaft seals are possibly later

Apparently this is a rubber hose with a duckbill? or something more?
Just thought I would post couple pics of some work couple old green Poulan saws can still do. Don't need no stinkin modern $1.500 electronic fuel injected, supercharged, plastic saws. 
Used the 4200 to drop this storm damaged 24" hickory. I hate tackling these trees with the tops broke and bent over about 20-30 feet up. At least the bottom was not rotted and was solid, makes things a little more predictable. I ran out of bar oil, so had to stop cutting today. Used the 4000 to help buck some of it.

New is less old ;-)
Awesome Gregg.
This not chainsaw related. but was interesting to me as I was out in woods pickin up wood. Had a visitor fly in and land in a tree right next to where I was working and watched me for some time. Never been that close to one before. Barn Owl I'm guessing. Have seen Great Horned Owls, and Screech Owls before, but not one of these.

Barred owl. Cool critters Gregg. Great pic
They are usually pretty docile during the daylight hours.
Tim... You are correct Sir! Its a Barred owl. My fingers type faster than my brain sometimes.. lol\

I'd love to know the same thing. I've located a carb kit on Amazon. Need to figure out what fuel lines and bar oil line sizes. Would like to know the best route to clean the air filter. Best way to get the carb off. Lol I'm new to this saw and I have the carb nuts off but it doesn't have the clearance to come off. The handle is on there tight and I don't want to strip out the head trying to pull it off for a little clearance. Basically any tips or information you found helpful I'd love to know
