Anyone know the easy way to get the clutch off? Gotta' do this first so I can replace the fuel line.

Are you sure? I've never had to remove the clutch in order to replace a fuel line on any saw.
I never had to take clutch off to change fuel line on mine. I wore it out several years ago though.
I like this one and it still runs like a champion:
Mine was grey. I cut many a cord of wood with it.
This might be the grey version:
It pulls a 20" bar, but I think the red one will also without any complaints.

Yeah, that was mine. I might still have some parts for it around somewhere.
It’s a 3.7 Roper, not a Poulan...totally different animal.
That's a poulan, not a Roper.

Guys, Took it complete and running but leaking fuel to a local saw shop. They said no problem. A month later they call and say they can't fix the leaking fuel line cause they can't get the clutch off. They told me it has to come this far apart to get to the line. WTF do I know? I have enough things apart right now and was willing to spend $50 or so to have a pro do it. It's in a parts box now. As #1 son says "Ya just have to do it yourself pops" Like this 77 Superglide.

If you can get a shovel going, shouldn't be anything hampering you but time and pride. Use the old line to pull new one through, never works but sounds goodGuys, Took it complete and running but leaking fuel to a local saw shop. They said no problem.

Which 3.7 is it? If it is this 3.7 roper then no the clutch does not have to come off
