They run okay, usually hard to start hot or cold, parts can be difficult to getI checked one out at rural king and it seems like it has nice build quality.
They run good when they hold a proper tune but if you sneeze start over.I had one, it's hard to describe how lame that saw was. A chinese red max clone in 38 CC's I had would cut circles around it. In fact I think my 26cc Homelite XL2 had more power. And no matter how you would tune it, nothing would help. I don't know if it was a characteristic of the strato engine or if I just had a bad example, but I would only take them if they were free and I could fix them up for nothing and sell them.
Imo the mtd saws are much better quality having been inside both poulan and the new mtd zenoah clones.MTD/Remington Rebel.

A clogged exhaust screen will also make it run richer as it will keep some of the incoming charge from escaping through the muffler. Be careful how you tune it. There is a VERY fine line between max power and lean seizure. Tuning is dependant on altitude and air temperature. This was an issue with the predecessor 170/180 with the fixed jet carbs.
Yeah they've used that style for quite a few years now. If you retune them out the box they can last a bit with light use, most burnup within a dozen tanks from running lean.

I disagree with your statement unless you're saying every saw running 10% ethanol fuel needs to be tuned.

The CS1201? Its not and has never been available in many countries due to emissions, it has "alot" of them.No doubt husky is putting poulan, PP slowly in the grave by putting incredibly bad product out there. Lack luster parts support for the old products. I looked up MTD, remington and (husky owned)zenoah.
I have an old ECHO 280E and recently did a carb kit on a friends used CS330T he recently bought...Makes ECHO/Shindaiwa look better to me all the time. But dealer network is lacking. I saw their 116cc ? saw on their website offering but the local dealer did not even know it existed...
That's the clone saw I had, 38 cc MTD. Mine had a cylinder that was cast with the strato port, but it was blocked off at the factory with a plastic partition. It only used a regular carb with no second butterfly valve for the strato port. It started easy and ran quite well, especially considering how choked the muffler was.Imo the mtd saws are much better quality having been inside both poulan and the new mtd zenoah clones.
Best explanation right there!The cheap Poulans die young because they are bought and used by a lot of morons.
