Nothing wrong with that piston, re-ring it,delete cylinder base gasket,drop cylinder base .020,muffler mod it,advance timing a few degrees and reshape the plastic intake manifold for better airflow and you'll end with strong running saw. Air filters are still available and even those can get mod too. I have a red Craftsman but it's a thin ring,either one good running saws,good score! Over in the Poulan sticky,you'll find all the resources needed on any Poulan related saw and a great bunch of saw fanatics to talk toThanks, I found a ring set on eBay for $17.99 shipped.
Do I need to do any prep to the cylinder before I put it all back together ?
