| I fixed up this 3200. Not pretty but tons of torque. It really | |
| surprised me. | |

| That saw looks similar to the Poulan 245 but the Pioneer 3200 is | |
| 77cc and the 245 is 73cc. It seems to cut through your wood | |
| with no problem at all. | |
| Nice job. So does the Pioneer 3200 have a auto oiler or is it | |
| manual only. | |
| Also being a older saw I assume it is reed valve too. | |

| Been a while so I didn't see your post Roger. | |
| It has a manual oiler only. The 3270 series have both. It is a | |
| reed valve saw. and pretty light for the displacement. | |
| It's more like a Homelite XL-12 than anything else. | |
| To save weight they sealed the top of the oil tank and the PTO | |
| side of the fuel tank with a piece of light gauge aluminum. Easy | |
| to puncture but both of them are completely covered so they | |
| can't get damaged. | |
| It has good power. The downside as many would comment is the use | |
| of a primer instead of a choke. The primers go south over time | |
| but a collector friend of ours gave me some help on how to | |
| repair it and it does work well. | |
| The saw has no idle speed adjust provision on the carb but uses | |
| a process (weird) called InjectAire that uses a screw that | |
| allows an air leak to adjust the idle speed. I found a | |
| combination of that and the idle mix screw worked. Not too easy | |
| to pressure and vac test as it's not entirely possible to | |
| eliminate the air leak. | |
| I am impressed with the saw as it has very good power. The bar | |
| mount is a real oddball but a D096 or a D176 mount can be | |
| adapted. I like it enough that I will be keeping my eye open for | |
| one of the 3270 series. | |
| I've since fabbed up a plug cover which are usually missing and | |
| a spike. | |

| I think it is. Pre P series saw. | |

| [/quote]That saw sounds sweet Tim, I've been after the 4.7 cube | |
| version for a while now and was lucky enough to win a 3270 off | |
| the bay this last Saturday, It's actually the "SC" version, | |
| which uses a choke rather than the primer used on the earlier | |
| models, pretty stoked to have it on it's way now and should be | |
| here before the end of the week, I also have a 14-20 and a 14-50 | |
| smaller brother, this series of Pioneers are unique to | |
| themselves, I really like my 4 cube jobs and really want to run | |
| the 4.7, pretty sure they're basically the same size physically | |
| other than CC of coarse.... ;D | |
