Nik's Poulan Thread

Yup, could be impulse line, carb boot, fuel line etc

Maybe fuel line, is an old Mac PM605, I cut big wood with it because of the weight of that saw, just lay it on the log and let her go. Too dang heavy to carry all day, that's what the lighter Wild Thang or the Echo for.

There's nothing wrong with a 2800, I love mine, as long as you don't let a tree limb break the handle and let it sit for 20 years until you find the frame assembly on Fleabay for $10.00 . Then its like a new saw again.

are these size poulans not popular saws?

Believe the 2700 and 2800 are the same cc. Almost all parts interchange though each has diff. series of saws that have minor differances.

Same here. Surprising power for these saws. Smaller cousins to the 3000 and 3300.

I've thought of putting a 335 cylinder and 330 piston in mine.

Modified Mark has been looking for one of those for a while. The 53's are far easier to find, that is a nice looking specimen.

Welcome aboard wildthang

Does anyone know what Poulan countervibe model was used to produce the Target demolition saw in this picture? I recently found one on C.L. and brought it home but I have not had a chance to play with it. It is a model 14/66

looks like early 5200 to me, 52 I believe

 

[s sidewall]

Which one of our fine southern state you from WildThang?

 

[Acornhill]

this is the actual saw I picked up

only one way to find out, remove muffler and measure cylinder, it looks to be in great condition, how does it run? will you be using it? you may have a rainbow of 4200's soon I like it.

 

[s sidewall]

Make a good back woods skil saw with a table saw blade.

welcome to AS ...just wildthings or do you got other saws?

To be honest at the moment I dont have any saws . Always just used my dads stihls Lol. I plan on getting a Wildthing hopefully this week ,I like them because I plan on modding it and I would hate to buy a high dollar saw and something go wrong.
