Title: Poulan 505.
Post by: 3000 FPS on September 22, 2015, 09:20:03 pm
I need the worm gear that drives the oiler on a Poulan 505.

Sure its the gear and not a oiler? I had a oiler quit pumping.

Just so others know what to look for.

The ends of the worm gear that fit into the clutch drum are either broken off or worn away.   Thanks for showing the pic Kevin.

Typically, after long term use, the the tips wings of the worm, where they engage the clutch drum notches, wear away.

Pics of the gear not working? I bet something could be rednecked if wore beyond reaching till a new one is found.

Roger try calling these folks. I ran the number through jonsered dealer. Just maybe, since it dont show NLA like other parts on their list.  Worth a shot calling.

Roger check into what I was talking about in the 2083 thread as back up.

@3000 FPS  the NOS worm gears, oilers, clutch drums, pto seals, misc other parts came in.  The NOS ones will work with the updated sleeve that was made to use to update the 475 415 worm gears from metal ones.

I will put this in the 475 thread too.

Anyhow I will hook you up with one of my used 2083 505 worm gears as I think as long as I use the sleeve with this worm gear they will work.

Wow those are hard to find items and I greatly appreciate this.    I have a project that has been sitting on the shelf for awhile and this is one of the last pieces that I need.   It is a 505 with a 2083 tank.    I am going to port this saw which is something I have not done previously.    It should be a fun saw when done.

Think I would put that nice NOS cover on the better 505 and put that homemade cover on the project. If it were me.

Got that 2nd set of NOS worm gear upgrade, bushing, oiler, drum, crankcase seal etc.  Got like 3 475 pto side crankcase seals now.

I would hang on to those seals they are even harder to find then the worm gears.
