Talking about a long time waiting on parts to come in. Just
received my Jack's order and they kept updating me on the parts
they were waiting on. Once it all came in 1 part was still
missing, I'm guessing NLA. I guess thats what I get for putting
a monster order together for 4 different saws.
Anyhow pretty interesting on the seal ( 2.5" drywall screw for
removal) and crank bearing removal (tried Art's way with a
socket and vise).
There is a ring that you use those split ring pliers or whatever
they are called to remove out of both sides of the case. It's
between the bearing and seal. Reckon that is what the bearing
goes up to when reinstalling.
Old crank bearings I took out had made in the USA on them.
Anyhow the guy that has been running the partner 550 till the
seals went on strike and the poulan 3450 now for 2 weekends and
tomorrow picking up the 3300 and a 330 to ring out for me with
his partner 500 still going strong.
Oh he did end up with a job after he exhausted the unemployment.
Making half of what he did and now working in a body shop to put
food on the table.

So far it shows these poulan intake boots will work. 2700 2800
3100 3350 3500 3600 305 . Betting on 335 too.
Anyone have a intake boot for sale or trade etc.

Well the 365 is altogether and started for 1st time yesterday.
Was having issues with idle so I quit after I wore myself out.
So after setting all night I went in today to pour the gas out
of tank to pull tank vent and carb. Gas came out of the carb
while pouring gas from the tank.
I ran new tank vent line and vent seemed ok. On the carb the
needle was bad even though it looked new. Wasnt seating and
creating leak.
All set and passed without b+c so I put 20" 3/8 on it and
starting making test cuts over and over and set her up rich and
idling perfect now. Called for the new owner to come pick up his
new free saw.
Ended up with new bearings, crank seals, ring, carb boot, new
tensioner, carb kit, flocked air filter. Also went without base
gasket to provide a little more torque in my way thinking.
Think I will ask him if he burns her up or something else if I
could get it back for parts though.

Just showing the Threebond 1194 used for the crankcase and
cylinder. If its good enough for hotsaws it's good enough for
stock ones ;).

Nice saw Cut.
Call me old fashioned but Im afraid of those sealers without a
gasket. I'd of made a paper bag gasket and sealed it with
loctite 515. Thin paper bag creases easily where the case
halves go together and then just cut it out with a fresh razor
blade.

Well she was finally picked up this morning and heading straight
to the woods.
I set him up with a 20" b+c 3/8 050 72dl on a IOU for a case of
bud in the future. ;D

Looks like I am going to get the PP 365 back even though it was
given for free. He is just not happy with the torque of the saw
with 20" buried in hardwoods. Told him it could be do to new
rebuild and the ring hasnt seated and broke in yet.
I ran it here and it runs fine in test wood smaller then bar.
Wonder if that small intake and smaller carb has anything to do
with it.
The guy prefers the partner 550 over it. So I am going to throw
some seals in 550 for him.
To me the 365 runs just like the 3500 I ran at the poulan gtg
(not no torque monsters by any means). Heck I always thought the
3750 with bigger carb was a little light in the torque
department.
I'm wondering if the rakers may be a little low on the full comp
full chisel chain for the saw. I'm thinking 30 thousandths.
I just hope the seals fixes the 550, because me being me prefers
the 365.
