Pioneer ??
« on: September 28, 2011, 12:05:20 pm »
What model Pioneer saws were the cousins to the Poulan Pro series saws like the PP 455 etc? 

Need info on the models PP and Pioneer that were similar and parts interchange etc.

The PP 455 is the Pioneer P45...I picked up a P45 week before last.

How hard is pistons to find and other parts for these?  I might be taking one in trade on my clinton and the pp 455 has a scored piston that I know of so far.

There's a new P/C on Ebay with a BIN of $99.

I had seen that p+c already, Thanks though.

But I am wondering about seals, bearing etc to keep it going. The piston is scored so I am guessing deeper issues and not operator error.
I will get a look at it at the poulan gtg.

Jacks small engines says they have 455 parts. (seals and bearings) I bought a pp455 from ebay and it had a **** crankcase. >:( so i parted it out to get my money back. i still have the scored piston and cylinder from it. They can be cleaned up and used IMO.PP455

Well I guess I got to see if we trade first. I told the guy I would rather have a scored poulan 455 then a old clinton up on my shelf weighing it down.
 He wants to restore the American made iron clinton, which is cool for a collector.

There are a surprising amount of parts for the Pioneer, (and Partner), based Poulan Pro saws through the Poulan/Weed Eater distribution network. It's hit and miss, but often worth a look.

I recently got a nice P51 that I've yet to run. Do those Pioneers share a bar mount with anything a little more common?
