The PP375 would've been nice--I already have 4620 & 295--but a couple of bidders really wanted the saws.

I have not seen to many of those 375's show up for sale and the 295's, parts are cheap and always make good runners.

Watch which 60cc cylinder you use for which saws.

I have seen 60cc with impulse in the cylinder and is a gilardoni. The 60cc gilardoni I have now uses impulse in crankcase. Thats your difference in cylinders.

I have to say your memory is better than mine.

Not really trust me on that. I just happen to have both still and recalled it on the projects.

I just got a good laugh to myself. Imagine a guy using a 60cc cylinder with no impulse nipple, on a crankcase with no impulse nipple.

Easy fix, battery lift pump. McCulloch battery pack.

I guess it would time to get out the drill.

Wasn't someone looking for a PP 236 at one time? One on eBay now but in green.

I recently got a PP236 project in trade. That green saw is a Poulan 2100 or 2400 Woodmaster version. The seller has it mislabeled. The 2100 and 2400 have bare bores and plated pistons (like most Micro series saws), while the PP236 has a plated bore and bare piston (as do the PP235, PP205, and PP185 top handle versions of the Micro). I also have a green 2100. Sears sold a Craftsman grey/black 2.3AV labeled version of the 2400.

I picked up a couple of Orange Poulans this morning. I'm thinking that they're 245's based on the sheetmetal mufflers. Most of the decals are gone and one is missing the AF cover and tank top. Both seem to still have decent compression. Starter housings on both are broken but serviceable. Pics later, gotta go running with the wife and kid.

Is it just my computer and/or IP, or is AS moving r-e-a-l-l-y s-l-o-w-l-y?

Yep, not many PP375s seen by me. I figure it was the reason for the high bids.

The seller originally didn't know what the "orange" saw was. I told them it probably was a Poulan 3400 or 3700 rebadged as a Craftsman, looks as though the seller has ID'd it (correctly???) as 3700.

I was in it too, untill the last minute bidding went crazy .

That "236" has been listed several times for $30.00 BIN & free shipping; I always thought that the missing AF & AF cover scared folks away. I have two of the Craftsman rear-handle 2300AVs.

Must be a magic saw:msp_smile:. Runs without a carb
"saw will fire and run when primed ) ( SAW IS MISSING CARB "

you can prime and fire off without carb.

Here's a couple pics of the twins I picked up today.

Both have good P/C's and decent compression. I didn't put a gauge on them, but they'll both fire with a little gas dribbled down the carb. If the tank top and AF cover from a 306 will fit, I can complete the one that's missing those parts. Do the starter housings interchange between the 306 and 245?

The one with the roller nose(oregon) still has PS chain on it.

Well, I took care of that. I, too, have a Craftsman Rear Handle 2.3 (2300) AV that I haven't been able to get quite right yet.
I figure between that one and this one I'll get at least one good runner out of it. I like the green color better anyway.

True, but he says it runs, not just fires.
