Right choke lever for poulan 415 series. Someone selling wrong levers on bay to folks. They got him for 15 too

I gave him one free to help ease that pain.

Giving a guy correct one in his box I am shipping from CRG FB.

So know what you are buying. Just ask.

Only way to know for sure is the bore measurement.

Correct. One of my 4000's has a 3400 style filter cover. That's how I bought it and just haven't corrected the issue.

Cant recall if I showed this here. Video of the cuts was on FB CRG.

Local tested out a bunch of saws I had. He siled when he ran the PP445.

Did anyone see that 5200 on eBay sold for 740.00 it was at 510 most of the time then it went crazy the last 20 seconds. I didn't think it was that great and didn't have a bar or chain with it. Maybe I should sell some of mine.

Well that tells ya some folks have a real addiction spending that amount for a saw.

Just going through one of the 54cc 3450 runners I took in the group deal. Found why switch didn’t work.
Showing the easy way of carb removal on these.
Got lucky HDA-137 carb on this one
Past owner like doing the dual port set up. Front exit cover with side exit back half.
Both saws was done up that way.

I just replaced my walbro 164 with a 137 today and my 3450 ran better, then I replaced the muffler cover with the older one making it have dual outlets and it really rips now!

I've only had leaky check valve issues with a couple 164. Out of many of them. But a 137 to me is a bonus point.

Had to fix alot of minor things that wasnt right and replace missing stuff. But tuned out nice and good runner.

Finished that 3450 up other day and posted it pic in CRG. Memeber PM'ed me and to mark it SOLD after telling him my price less then 5mins.
So wont be sold local. Told him choice of 20" or 22" set ups. He went with 22 and big dawg.


20 in pic when went to cut with it to test.

The only Poulan`s that I still have are the two 306A`s that we bought back around 1979-80. They have cut a lot of wood in their time but have required only minimal maintenence , both have had their original tin mufflers replaced with the cast metal mufflers. They still start and run very well and I occasionally cut with them. I had a 6000 a couple of years back but sold it,it was made by Sachs Dolmar for Poulan, I have a good number of the Sach Dolmar saws in their original colors.

The 306a was the texas chainsaw massacre saw as seen in the original movie correct?

Most every saw collector will tell you it was the 245 A , it had the taller fuel tank but the rest of the saw looks the same.

lookin for 306 muff cover

lookin for 306 muff cover

I changed our two over to the cast aluminum mufflers, they seem to last way longer than the stamped tin mufflers they both came with.

 

[rocketnorton]

neighbor lost his alum cover
does the tin one fit or does he need whole muff?

Parts saw I was stealing from yesterday . Came in the stash I got a week or so ago. Looks like some mice lost their home.

Otherwise 3450 p+c looked good too.

I took my least favorite 4000 to do the dirty work on a whole tree of fat lighter for kindling this morning.

Hey guys, what is the proper way to mount the climbing loop on this model of saw. I remember reading this thread and believe this one is mounted wrong.
