Good film. Make certain the piston is above the exhaust port or the rope can fall through and damage the piston above the piston ring. When started it comes apart and destroys the saw.
The oiler worm gear is behind the metal cover visible once all clutch parts are removed. HTH

How do you remove a clutch drum on Poulan Pro PP4620AVHD chain saw

YouTube can be a great help with video's of 'how to' do things.

I have attached a video from 'donnyboy73.' I found his video's to be very informative and well put together. The video link is not of your exact saw but is a Poulan and I hope will be helpful to you.

HOW TO Remove Clutch & Sprocket on Poulan 2150 Chainsaw. The same procedure can be applied to many other chainsaws.

Poulan 2150, chain oiler not working. Chain is getting very hot.

Try to pour some gasoline only in the oiled tank and look if the gas comes out, if not the tank is clogged .

Brand new poulan pro 4620avx--bar oil is coming out of oiler but not getting onto chain

Hello. Thin your bar oil just a wee bit with some kerosene. If you have a gallon of bar oil add 1/4 cup of kerosene, stir it up and you will be fine. For starters also, directly apply some bar oil to the chain so that you are always using a well lubed chain. Joe

I Have a poulan brand chain saw that the bar oiler is not oiling.Resivor is full of bar oil but it still wont oil the chain or bar.The model is Poulan Pro 220 with a 16 inch bar.Any help would be...

Oil System Plugged:
  1. Remove the clutch cover, bar, and chain, clean the bar groove, any holes and passages on the rear of the bar (both sides, consider rotating the bar), if equipped with a sprocket nose ensure it rotates easily at least one complete revolution. Clean the saw oiler hole and channel. Insert a blunted, hooked piece of wire through the oil filler hole and pull the hose in the oil tank out. Pay attention to the screen or filter on the free end (clean or replace, difficult to determine serviceability). Start the saw and see if it oils when revved up (oozes down side of saw). If yes reassemble your saw. If no, continue with 2.
  2. Work your way through the linkage (use IPL to identify components and locations) cleaning and replacing any defective parts as you go. Carefully check the hoses for cracks especially at bends and connections. If equipped with an oil pump it is usually behind the clutch (clutch is a left handed thread). Please make extensive notes & some digital pictures will help during reassembly.
If it does not oil on completion of 1 it is most likely a bad oiler or worm gear (see IPL).

An example of a Poulan “PP220 Gas Chain Saw Type 5” IPL follows (may not be your saw):
http://www.ordertree.com/modelinfo/PWE/PP220-Gas-Chain-Saw-Type-5/75.PP220-Gas-Chain-Saw-Type-5.1.59.1.html

The IPL (exploded parts list) for your saw is the only detail for the oil system and is sketchy at best. Oiler components and part numbers are listed but may be on different illustrations. They are also beneficial with disassembly/reassembly.

It has an outboard clutch use this and the IPL as a guide for removal. R² Drive Link Outboard Clutch by Drivelink.blogspot.com
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdqkIuVNUQc

  1. Check the IPL for your saw to see if any special tools are needed. Poulan (Craftsman, Jonsered, Husky) clutch removal tool part number 530031112 if needed, is under $5 from many sources (look at the visible area between the weights if 2 small round sockets are visible you need the tool).
  2. There are metal piston stops available, when square (almost never) with the piston top these work well, if not square they have been known to punch through the piston. I suggest a length of nylon rope (nothing left behind) be used instead of the piston stop (retain 6" ± so you can remove it). Make sure the piston is near the top of the cylinder before feeding the cord or it can fall through the exhaust port and damage the piston as it rises.
  3. Everyone I have ever removed had a left handed thread (tighten it to loosen it).

If your saw is not a Type 7 an IPL for all Poulan chainsaws can be found here:
Poulan.com
http://www.ordertree.com/modelinfo/POULAN-WEED-EATER/75.59.html
The dash number of your serial number is the type.

I have a Poulan 2150 chain saw which needs a new chain oil pump. What is the cost to replace it. Should I just buy a new saw.

If you perform the labor repair likely <$20 (<$9 for pump, <$1 worm gear). Compare replacement cost to 34cc± replacement, your call.
A link to a Poulan 2150 Gas Saw Type 7 follows (may not be your saw):

Sample IPL "Poulan 2050 Gas Saw Type 7" (there are almost 20 IPLs for this saw. I defer to you to find the correct 1):

The oiler pump and worm gear are on the "Handle, Chassis & Bar Assembly" illustration. This also aids disassembly.

Automatic oilernot working

Basics to check:
1) pick-up filter in tank clean
2) oil feed hole in bar clean
3) oil feed line from pump not cracked
4) pump worm gear and drive from under clutch (clutch removal needed)

Wood shark 2150 not oiling

Your model is a 2150LE. There is a Type 1 and 2. The linked IPL is a 2150LE Gas Saw Type 1. Click the "View the illustrated parts list [Go] button here:
http://www.ordertree.com/modelinfo/PWE/2150LE-Gas-Saw-Type-1/75.2150LE-Gas-Saw-Type-1.1.59.1.html
What little detail there is is on the "Handle, Chassis, & Bar" drawing.
A blunted, hooked piece of wire can be used to pull the hose in the oil tank out. I recommend the filter be replaced. Work your way through the linkage cleaning and replacing any defective parts as you go. The oil pump (52) is often behind the clutch. The saw can be operated without the bar and chain to verify oiler operation. GL

Poulan oiler don't work

Common problem with Poulan and Craftsman gas saws. Take off the chain and chain guide and clean out all the saw dust etc. Start saw without chain and look for port where there are signs of oil. If port is clear of sawdust, then it is likely the pump which is located behind the chain break assembly. you can get the diagram on Poulan website and the replacement pump will cost about $15 - $20 to replace yours.
