I got my carb yesterday and put it on. Set the adjustment at stock and after a couple of pulls it fired right up and did some fine tuning on it after it warmed up. Still have to tune it in the wood but all good so far. I Haven't really done any muffler mods to it. I did pull the clogged spark...

Thanks for that part number and that tuning tip.

I know this thread is a couple of years old now, but I just ordered a Walbro WT-215 for my MS250 and if just wondering if I would go by the stock tuning from the Zama as far as 1 turn out on the low and 3/4 out on the high. I know i would have to fine tune. Thanks for any help.

It’s a good saw. I’ve had mine for about 6 years. Just keep an eye on the air filter assembly. After a while the air filter doesn’t seal to the carb adapter very well. Joseph Huckabaa

I have an MS250 that I’ve been using for about 6 years. I’m definitely not a pro but I like mine. The only complaint I have is the air filter assembly. The air filter after some time doesn’t seal to the carb adapter very well. They’re fine when new but after getting hot they don’t fit well. The...

Does everyone use a firewood grate in their wood burning stoves or do you just burn them directly on the firebrick? Joseph Huckabaa

I know this has probably already been discussed in this thread before but I guess I just couldn’t find the right combination of words for it to come up through a search. What is the best way to remove the crank seals in a 3400? I did a pressure test and it held over 7 psi no problem. As soon as...

I can’t say too much on a favorite saw as I’ve only ever ran an MS250. That’s what I have used for 5 or 6 years. Don’t really have any complaints on it other than I don’t like the air filter design on it. It doesn’t seal well. It’s been a good saw other than that. I also have my granddaddy’s...

You were right. I see the parts in the last picture you posted. Joseph Huckabaa

I need the lever that the black arrow is pointing to and then the bushing between that lever and the throttle lever( the one the yellow arrow is pointing to). Just can’t see the bushing in the pictures. Joseph Huckabaa

I need the throttle stop (p/n 530035105) and the throttle bushing (p/n 530035125). Unfortunately it looks like the saw in the picture no longer has the carburetor. There is a used carb on eBay that I will get if I have to just to get those 2 parts. Thanks for the offer. Joseph Huckabaa

I couldn’t find them on EBay and VE Petersen only has the repair kit for these carbs unfortunately. Joseph Huckabaa

Yes sir I still need them. I haven’t found anywhere that has them. Didn’t want to have to buy another used carb just for those 2 little pieces. Joseph Huckabaa

I bought an MS250 about 6 years ago. It’s my first saw. The first one I had ever run and still the only one to this day that I have ran. I had to figure out how to run it on my own. So needless to say it’s somewhat “ragged” out. I can honestly say the only problems I have had from it were from...

I need a new cylinder gasket for my Poulan 3400 but I’m gonna have to cut my own due to them being NLA. How thick should the gasket be?Thanks for your help. Joseph Huckabaa

Had almost the same problem with a Poulan 3400. Only difference is it’s not points ignition. Too big of a gap on the coil and plug both. It wouldn’t even try to start. I could visually see spark when checking it but could tell that it was very weak. Properly gapped them both and it fired right...

My Poulan 3400 carburetor is missing a couple of parts. Throttle stop p/n530035105 and the throttle lever bushing p/n 530035125. So far the three sites that I have tried to order from have cancelled orders due to the parts being NLA. Can anyone help me out? Joseph Huckabaa

Could anyone help me out with a Poulan 3400 shop repair manual? Thanks.
