Price wasn't too bad and seems to start, run, and oils the chain well and is pretty good shape. In my opinion if the decals are legible, it's in VG shape. I will need to break it down and see how the fuel lines are, air filter looks like clean OEM Gray color, and though it came with two chains it has what looks like the original chain installed that has the anti-kickback depth rakers on both sides of the rails. It has been years since I've seen one of those factory installed safety chains. Plan on changing out the chain, grease the drum bearing, grease bar tip and should be ready. #Post#: 73319-------------------------------------------------- Re: Whats on your bench today By: 3000 FPS Date: September 6, 2016, 9:10 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Nice old saw there RevPop. The Countervibes make great saws and are easy to work on and maintain. They are some of my favorite Poulans. That is pretty cool that you even have the operators manual. #Post#: 73321-------------------------------------------------- Re: Whats on your bench today By: Revpop Date: September 6, 2016, 9:37 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Ha Ha, the owner's manual says do not throw away! I guess the previous owner listened... #Post#: 73323-------------------------------------------------- Re: Whats on your bench today By: chy_farm Date: September 7, 2016, 6:54 am --------------------------------------------------------- Nice to see an old Poulan, want to see video!

I looked but only see a couple videos of the 3800 and one is Cut-n-for-fun's video I think done for sale and one other guy's 3800 sawing a log test. Lots of 3400 videos. #Post#: 73329-------------------------------------------------- Re: Whats on your bench today By: Chainsawrepair Date: September 7, 2016, 11:32 am --------------------------------------------------------- Poulan 3800 in baseball bat type hard dried ash. 3/8 chain LGX I think. Tested 3 saws that day with same new chain. Not sharpened new dull out of box loop. 3800 and echo 6700 are on same playing field IMO of the 3 tested.
