SOURCE: My Pouland 2000, 2.0 c.i, does not want to run ,

Have you ever had your saw tuned? Your local Stihl dealer will usually do it for ±$40.00. That will probably fix it for years to come. Did you store it (6 months) with fuel in the tank? Fuel today contains ethanol, it is corrosive. The fuel lines on your saw are not formulated to resist its effect.
It is difficult to access your need for a chainsaw. Would an electric work? If yes Poulan offers 8 different models. Be wary of buying off brands, parts are difficult to find and they stop production with little warning. If it must be gas I recommend you purchase it from a seller/mechanic not a big box store. It may be a little more expensive but a chainsaw shop will help you when a problem arises and you know where to take it for service.
If your 2000 were mine I'd at least get a repair estimate from a local chainsaw shop. HTH

IMO for a professional grade saw Dolmar/Makita (dealers are scarce) offer the most saw for the least money. Husqvarna and Stihl make fine products as well.

SOURCE: pouland chain saw won't start, seems to not be

1) How have you determined that there is no spark?
2) Have you used a type of spark tester?
3) What is the condition of the plug. Brown or dark brown is OK. Black or silver is NOT Ok.
*If you do not have a spark tester,
a) remove the plug, and with it connected to the wire,
b) find a portion of metal around the cylinder that you can ground it on, and then pull the rope.
c) If the plug is black, you may see spark, but you should replace the plug.

*** PLEASE NOTE ; if there is excess fuel in the cylinder or on spark plug,
it can catch fire, so be carefull to cover the hole with a heavy rag so that any fuel
cannot be exposed to spark plug durning test !!!!
Get back with me on how this issue works out.
thanks, rwvanlue
Basics to check:
1) Spark plug - brown or dark brown - OK
a) is it carbon or fuel fouled
b) is there spark

2) Muffler remove for inspection
a) exhaust screen clean or plugged
b) inspect cylinder wall/piston as the flywheel is slowly rotated
3) Check cylinder compression


Fuel starvation - 'lean fuel' condition
Basic things to check:
1) spark plug
2) spark arrestor in muffler
3) fuel lines and tank filter
4) turn adjustment needles out (counterclockwise) 1/4 to 1/2 turn
Chain Saws:
5) check impulse tube and intake boot for cracks or leaks
*if all of the above are OK and/or do not improve performance then:
Remove Carburetor
6) replace gaskets/diaphragms
a) use a spray carb cleaner to clean jets, holes, and body of carb
b) fuel pump diaphragm goes against the carb body,
then the gasket towards the outside
c) metering gasket goes against the carb body,
and the diaphragm goes towards the outside

SOURCE: gas/oil ratio for fuel in a poulan pro 46cc engine

The standard mix for most chain saws is 40:1 that's about 3-1/4 oz per gallon.

Installed new carb-saw will idle fine,but will not rev.Idle scew has no effect on r.p.m.As soon as you hit the throttle,saw dies.Almost act's like the chain brake is on but it is dissengaged.Both...

There are a few things to check, if the muffler has a spark arrester gauze in the out let this may well be blocked, remove the muffler and the gauze, does the engine now rev? if yes either the park arrester is blocked or the muffler itself is blocked, if this does not cure it, check the flow of fuel from the tank to the new carb, replace the filter in the fuel tank and try again, if this does not help try running the saw with the air filter removed, if it revs normally the filter is blocked.

The saw dosn't want to start even after I replaced the Carb.

If it has a good spark and fuel at the plug, then i would suggest it may not be mechanically sound, remove the muffler and check the condition of the piston through the exhaust port.

I have a poulan pro 295.I cannot remove muffler to get to spark arrestor.I removed the 2 bolts and the muffler is loose but I can't get it off.

Hello Tom;
Look at the link "Engine Assembly" print. If your saw has multiple pieces like shown there is an additional internal screw. If not the only thing that comes to mind is remove the engine cover.
http://www.ordertree.com/modelinfo/PWE/PP295-Gas-Saw-Type-1/75.PP295-Gas-Saw-Type-1.1.59.1.html

There are other "PP295" saws listed here:
Poulan.com

The dash number of your serial number is the type.

If you have more questions or need additional help please reply below and I will get back to you. Thank you for using FixYa and Good Luck. HTH

Fuel is coming out of my muffler on my chainsaw

your air fuel ratio is off, that is unburnt fuel coming out.

Can,t hardley pull starter cord. I've removed muffler and carb. It will pull fine if the spark plug is removed (w/or with carb and or muffler . this is a poulan pro 18"

What i have to occasionally do for a chain saw after it sits all winter is to put something like WD40 in the spark plug hole and crank it over several times. What happens to me is that the piston gets gunked up from the gas that ran down into it during the winter and it won't crank over hardly at all. This is probably your problem. I have also found that if i store my saws with the tank down, the gas cant get into the carb and do this. (Although it's better to drain tank).
If this has been a running saw instead of a stored one, you probably need a rebuild kit if the piston is scored.
