Chainsaw Repair

K041 in 325 usually on that saw.

A041 is same mount (not sure anymore) I think but is usually in 3/8 low profile. K041 comes in 325 and 3/8.

I added more Art. 

You can use a K095 mount too. I use one on a poulan 365 and huskys back and forth.

Thats what I meant to include. Just open up where it goes to bar adjuster stud and it will oil.  5min job. Just go through bar groove drive link area down.  Sometimes the K095 bar adjust hole has to be ovaled to fit.

On K041 I just drill husky oiler hole and use back forth too.

The difference between "K" and "A" on Oregon bar mounts is the rear of rail on bar mount (chain entrance). The distance from chain entrance (rear most corner of bar mount) to centerline of bar slot is greater on "K" mount. The "A" is intended for small diameter sprockets which are typically for 1/4 or 3/8 mini chain sprockets. The "K" is typically used for 7 tooth .325 or 3/8 chain sprockets. The "K" was initially designed to reduce chain jumping with smaller displacement fast accelerating chainsaws equipped with .325 on the small bars. As the chain entrance is higher, the chain drivelink coming off sprocket would enter the bar rail quicker and therefore have less chance of jumping.

Very glad I checked out this thread tonight.  I had completely forgotten about a Poulan/Sears cross over older, light weight saw I left under my work bench over a year ago when I determined it needed a new fuel line and filter, my best guess.  Definitely could have used it yesterday if it was running.  Your discussion brought it to mind and even included some additional considerations if the problem is not limited to  the fuel line and/or filter.  Always come up with something I find of value when checking out this forum.  Will get after that Sears/Poulan the first thing tomorrow.
