Just pull it off, but a donor saw with a good top end and swap it

Wright 122 Chainsaw (aka Poulan S25DA)

Now I know why it was cosmetically clean... probably spent the last 3o years looking like this on the inside.

Tis a scratch, Nothing but a flesh wound ...

If I have the same cylinder it's yours for shipping. I pulled one down and sent the piston off already.

Mine is from a S25DA

Through a parts company or is it something you have to find on ebay?

Oregon makes them for every thing right ?

Picked up a couple more 4200's, one on the left came from a member here and the one on the right was a Craigslist find that someone posted in the e-Bay/Craigslist stickie.

Very nice and great finds. Did you already pack the bars away?

No, just have not mounted them yet.

You guys with the bigger Counter Vibes with bigger bars, do you all run 3/8 chain or 404?

Nate, I have not owned a .404 chain. So can't give ya a comparison. I have enough trouble keeping track of the different gauge 3/8" bars and chains I have. Some 50 & 58 ga. bars of different lengths and number of drive links. I can't imagine there would be to much difference on the big Poulans. They have enough grunt to handle them seems to me.

Gregg,

Wright 122 Chainsaw (aka Poulan S25DA) - Parts List - 1976

I just scanned the paper parts list for my Wright 122A from August 1976.
I popped them on the ironing board and tried to flatten them as best I could.
I haven't seen this document anywhere else on the web with Wright branding.
Look a little higher in this thread for my posting with other scanned docs for this saw if interested.
May help somebody someday.

Gregg,

Thanks Gregg, not worried about grunt for sure. I just have a place here that I can buy 28-36" NOS Poulan Sprocket nosed bars for $45 a piece but they are all 404. Didn't know if it would be worth it.

That confirms you have a points saw and it's 2.1 cu in displacement.

I'm not sure if the correct 2.3 cu in P&C will bolt right up

Been cutting myrtle and small trees at work for couple days with my husqvarna 359 got get some thing lighter for those kind of jobs !

 

[Acornhill]

Good luck finding that top end, I did have 2 complete units but sold them this year. I will check to see if I have a piston / rings still.

Yes that's right... points from 1976...

I have tracked down a used 34cc cylinder in good-enough condition from a member on here and I'm about to order a piston kit online (unless someone here has any "spares").

This is my first chainsaw tear-down and re-build.
I think I wish I'd started with something less "rare" and "precious" (am I crazy to use those words)?
That way I could make my mistakes and learn on something that was more "disposable" and that has thousands of parts available.

That would be fantastic if you have the piston set.
Thanks for checking!

Wright 122 Chainsaw (aka Poulan S25DA) - Sprocket

Wish I had more experience and intuition with this.
Any opinions on the state of this sprocket?
Good? Bad? Trashed? Good enough?
Should I be looking for a replacement?

Run it!
