The old Maytag washing machine gas engines that were twin cylinders, think it was a model 72.

Otto Rings has them as a whole set for $15, but two of the six are too thick at 3/32". Chunk those in the trash, and the two pair of 1/16" thickness were a drop in with 0.010" end gap.

Can't beat that price for a Poulan obsoleted part! :D
 
S25CVA question, saw starts right up but will not idle long, I have to move the choke back and fourth to keep it running. Do we think carburetor rebuild or seals leaking? I will probably be doing both.
 
I have a chance to buy a PP 375 for $75 or less (I'm planning on offering a little less and see if the seller accepts). It sounds like a good saw that will meet my firewood cutting needs. Just a little concerned about parts availability. Can you Poulan fanatics tell me if that's a decent price? Thanks

Phenomenal price if it is complete and runs good IMO.

Kit it, but also make a blinding plate for the exhaust port and P'test it before you replace the crank seals.

I have had some S25s that both seals leaked badly, and others that were fine.

A trouble spot that does have a leak in most every one is the top cylinder stud base threads though. Gotta use epoxy to set that stud to cure it, or put epoxy on the case threads/stud end if it's already assembled. Pic coming of the one I just did Sunday, wouldn't hold pressure and major bubbles blowing from the case threads where the stud ends.
 
375 is a great saw. Dolmar is a beast. I love my 7900. Weedeaterman can take your 64 to 85cc for little money. :laugh::popcorn:

So you would just go with the Makita? I could buy both but then I'm afraid I would end up just like you guys with multiple saws. The chainsaw version of trailer queen cars lol.
