Today I climbed a 80 ft pine tree and I got up towards the top and she was swaying back and forth. And then you popped into my head saying I'm not in a hurry I am at peace. I took a deep breath I drove my Spurs in and let the top go and that noodle was rocking and rolling. I was smiling so hard my face hurt. my dreams are about to become a reality all because of my climbing gear and a power saw And some positive motivation from buckin Billy Ray. Thank you for everything you've done for the community.
This man knows his stuff and I enjoy watching him work and improve the performance of each Chainsaw. He has such a good outlook on life and truly loves helping people .
Just wanted to take some time out of my day. To tell you thank you for elaborating on your thought processes when cutting trees, and explaining why you do what you do, the way you do it. I hope I said that in a way that it makes sense. Stay safe and have a blessed day.
I have a 5200 and a 4200. I love them both. Thanks for the video. When you took apart the 5200 muffler I noticed that your just had the large hole baffle. A stock muffler also came with a spark arrest screen that wrapped around the baffle. This screen reduces the throttle response even more. GO GREEN!!! Thanks again.
Thanks for making this video, a gentleman I know wanted to clean out his barn and gave me 5 chainsaws, 4 poulans and an old eager beaver. I'll be playing with the poulans shortly now
This is Riley Murphy if you remember me, I lost your channel for a while and just found it again, still subbed, haven't watched yet but I'm glad I found your channel again.
The old small block chevy and 318 mopar crossovers for choke in intakes used to carbon up. We would take cutting torch, get some of carbon red, then shut off acetylene. The O2 would burn them out clean as a whistle. Might be a option here. Thanks for your videos. Very organic.
Welcome to the new subscribers and a salute for the true blues.... “ she cuts eh “ love it mate , got er going good..... have a fantastic weekend y’all and remember your day will go the way the corners of your mouth turns .... love to all, be kind, love n hugs for our cynthinator and mama buckin....😎👍🇦🇺
Hi Buckin Clean that carbon out of the port so it can breath right. Next best thing to doing a porting job. I bought a new Poulan Pro 4000 back in the 80,s when they first came out . First thing I did after break in was I removed the screen in the muffler that help . It has cut lot of timber and fire wood , has been a good saw . Now it needs crank seals to run again . I have been watching and learning from the Iron Horse Channel . Been thinking about doing a rebuild and some porting and muffler mods and make it really run strong . Have a great day and be safe .
Buckin! Yes that is the factory muffler, I have the same saw. originally the baffle would have also had a fine mesh screen all the way around it, so someone must have already removed that part from your saw. Love the videos :)
I love those t shirts Buckin . I ordered two of them Awesome video.I am getting off line and down the road sprinkling Kindness were I go. Thank you for what you give
I have s Wildthing. I cut the spring on the pop off needle in the carb, drilled numerous holes in my baffle, and kept it for back pressure. It didn't have the holes yours does. Then I drilled 6- 1/8 holes where it goes straight thru. And it is one of my best and favorite saws. Guys are often trying to buy it. It's my limb, small wood saw. I put a 14" bar on it for better control. It eats wood. Poulans seem to like some back pressure. But I'm about to do some things to my 2450 soon. Another small saw. I have a Husky 460 for my bigger stuff. Love to have an XP thou. I have an ol 64 Homelite XL. First saw I ever used. I was 10, and I'm a 64 model as well. I have a 74 Poulan 245, 77 Micro, a small Homelite (Craftsman) 2.1.
Good to hear from ya Eric. I found a XXV Super at the dump a year ago. Took me a year to get it to come around. Turned out it was bad fuel line. What a little ripper it is now, just stock!!! One hander 😉
morning buckin! i wish you a great day,brother. greetings to the whole buckin army! friends,i wish you all a happy weekend! see you sunday in the livechat,
I love how you put it, "It's a cutter...". Sort of insinuating that it's not a good cutter, but it will get the job done if ya had to use it. Never fail to put a smile on my face Buckin. Keep up the love and spread the kindness all.
Ah I was wondering how to do that. I switched away from stihl oil and went to husqvarna. Never had problems with carbon before that n now my saws all choked up. Thanks for that!
Michael Fresh Yes, it works well. A couple ounces in a gallon of fuel mix will slowly help loosen some of that carbon buildup during normal running, but you have to load up the saw and work it - buck up some big firewood, don’t go trimming trees or slashing with it.
Them big old pollys are nice when treated right. VERY hard to get the tuning right on the newer wild things. Once replacing the fuel lines and rebuilding the carb, they’ll usually run good on clean fuel
Billy, have you ever burned the carbon off of the restrictor plate? It can be done, and you can put the plate back in the muffler, which will help stop brush fires from happening.
I did this to my poulan 260 I carry in a case in the bed of my one recovery truck and the guys said it felt like I rebuilt the saw and all I did was cut out the crap and make my own muffler and that little 18" poulan pro 260 woke right up haha its not my 395xp haha but it's a good little saw now for cutting fallen trees off the road to get past and for quick firewood trips instead of pulling the big saws out all the time haha thank you for the video it's crazy how bad regulations probably forced husqvarna to choke back these saws
I just got a free poulan 4200. Finaly found a recoil through it. Upon first inspection, i could pick the saw up by the rope, cleaned the carb and i noticed the piston looked immaculate. Full wrap bar, some big dogs ect. I stuck in a stick of red fir, i discovered the same thing. Im going to build a pipe for it, i just cant get enough air out of it... so another pipe adventure begins
I'm running the biggest baddest phone there is the Samsung note S20 Note 5G Ultra and you make it buck with the sound off this Video Brother. Cheers from Kitscoty Alberta Canada
Great stuff. Have you ever taken down the rakers all the way to see what a difference it makes?? It must be great being able to climb the trees and not be shaking like a car on cheap gas. 👍👍
Yeah Buckin putting new life in the oldies. Love it Buckin thank you for the update on the merch. Man I sure love this place. Thank you Nick Pixel and everyone else who had a hand in the new website and the Stand Up And Buck shirts. Love it all my friend. 🌲❤🌲👊
Hey Buckin, just wanted to say I love your videos. Watching them makes me remember cutting firewood with my dad when I was younger. I can still smell the gas and wood. I love that smell.
Bud, you really crack me up! If you aren't the real life guy for the character played by Kurt Russell in OVERBOARD with Goldie Hawn, then I don't know nothing at all! That character with a minor mix of Dan Aykroyd, that's you man!
Question: At what ratio are you mixing the gas for the Poulan? The new saws run at 40-50:1.....but the old saws need more oil, huh? Won’t 40-50:1 be too Lean to run Poulan....help me out, Please?
I always let the commercials run unless they are ridiculously long .. the things we do for you like I just watched a commercial about laser hair removal 😂
That green machine from early days is a beast...just like the old McCullochs...the weak point is the plastic starter drum...I modified a metal drum and installed it in my friends saw...then, I went online and found a 3400 anti-vibe just like his and bought it cheap...maybe $50 or so...they are just unbelievable...now, all we get is plastic throw away junk from China.
I needed a cheap saw to clean fences and haul around in the UTV. So I bought a Poulan pro 5020. Not a bad saw for the price I think it’s basically a cheaper version of a husky
I have a 5020 that I bought last year on clearance for cutting up dead fall in my 30 acre woodlot. It's been a great saw thus far, a little finicky to start after warmup but you get used to it. For the price point on a saw with a husqvarna engine, you can't go wrong. If it breaks I'll bite the bullet and buy a new husqvarna with a 20"+ bar. If i sold the wood i cut with the 5020, it's more than paid for the new "expensive" saw.
I also have the Poulan pro 5020, only mod has been a new Oregon bar and chain. It was getting finicky on warm starts, then I cleaned the air filter, also drilled the muffler for a 3/8 hole. It runs a heck of a lot better! They need to breathe as with any 2 stroke engine, the trick is finding the right balance!
That is it! Just think if they didn’t restrict and vented the saws properly, up to and including factory porting to get the highest potential out of these engines. Most of these are low compression and need a better squish. Beyond all that, good oil and gas and the rest is pure enjoyment.
I've got an old 59 or 60 F100 bow saw with the gear reduction. It weighs close to 50 lbs and I heard they were beast in their day. I can't wait to get it running again and then it's going on the mantle in the living room. The old fellow I got it from said it was running when parked but that was many many years ago. Anyone know of anything to be looking out for on those old poulans ?
There is a pulse in the exhaust and that screen disrupts that pulse and interrupts the natural flow of exhaust gas. Think about an expansion pipe that gives that pulse room to flow naturally, then you introduce the back pressure at the end of it. The reverse happens on the other side of the cylinder.

Hi Buckin
Clean that carbon out of the port so it can breath right.

God Bless Billy keep spreading the love
Lol love it you’re just like a big little kid just love the sound of the two-stroke ,and meet you I’m gonna have to try me some of that lol 👍
Hello from Vancouver Island. That was pretty cool seeing the fire in the piston
Buckin! Yes that is the factory muffler, I have the same saw.
originally the baffle would have also had a fine mesh screen all the way around it, so someone must have already removed that part from your saw.

With a lifetime of screaming saws, you must be deaf as a gatepost like me 😆
This BIG Poulan Powersaw will definitely get the Neighbors up and looking out the window. 😬👍
I think that’s why the exhaust is closed off so much on the new one, noise levels
Love my poulans. I have a few countervibe 3400s and a 4000. And a couple top handles too. A 25a. And a micro vibe xxvv...Always wanted a 5200

Hey Buckin, adding a little Seafoam to the fuel helps clean the carbon out of those old saws. Good for clearing varnish out of the carbs to
Ah I was wondering how to do that. I switched away from stihl oil and went to husqvarna. Never had problems with carbon before that n now my saws all choked up. Thanks for that!

LOL! COOL!.... thanks 4 video. be kind.
I'm actually a fan of these saws!
Cutting logs paper thin 👍. Love you brother.
Such a wholesome guy
Hi Buckin here from land of THE SLEEPING GIANT. Top of the day mate. Or should I say Mr. Hanks..?.Wilson...
Have you done a video on adjusting the carburetor? Iv had my muffler done up on my 266xp and I think it needs a bit more juice
Buckin brother love the spirit! Where do you find your saws?? I’d love to get one of those old monsters
You really love the saws ❤😊
How are all the Bucking Army I'm well see ya on the live feed Sunday Later tater have a day love from TEXAS
particularly love the husqvarna 395xp, what is your opinion about it?
I've used alot of poulan saws and did a muffler job on one I had. A pipe with a small muffler on the end. 24" bar. Cut good for 2 years. Then burnt up
It came off the side. Hot little saw.
That was a cool view.
Yeah Buckin putting new life in the oldies. Love it Buckin thank you for the update on the merch. Man I sure love this place. Thank you Nick Pixel and everyone else who had a hand in the new website and the Stand Up And Buck shirts. Love it all my friend. 🌲❤🌲👊

Hey Buckin, just wanted to say I love your videos. Watching them makes me remember cutting firewood with my dad when I was younger. I can still smell the gas and wood. I love that smell.

I really believe that the air and exhaust are resisted on the poulan saws to meet epa stuff
I’m thinking about adding holes to help it

So my friend why do you hold up the crank pull rope when you cut your saw off?
The holes on the side are incoming fuel. You reach a certain RPM and the center opens and it adds fuel to essentially richen the saw.
Next weekend we're having a Paul Bunyan contest at Wesley Chapel mall here in Florida.
There is a pulse in the exhaust and that screen disrupts that pulse and interrupts the natural flow of exhaust gas. Think about an expansion pipe that gives that pulse room to flow naturally, then you introduce the back pressure at the end of it. The reverse happens on the other side of the cylinder.
Hey Buckin, sorry if this is a dumb question but why do you alway pull the cord when shutting off your saws?
To save the starter from kick back when it's shutting off
Hope someone can answer this yet but do all saws have thY gov? And is that on the carb
We need more vids of these classic 🇺🇸💪🏻⛓️🪚
I have a poulan that fires up on choke and then dies have not been able to get it to stay idleing ?
