I know its the same as the Super 380. I also know the 3750/380 run a larger carb the the PP365. The 330 also runs the bigger carb.

I know my 330 will give my 365 a run for its money and I have a HDA 137 here to try on my 365 if I ever get around to it.

Just got a 365 60cc  in on trade. Was  told that it will start but not stay started. Havent had time yet to check anything over.

So is the 365 like a older version of the 3750?

See if you think what I am thinking on this. Saw idles fine when cold and first started up.  Get saw warmed up and wont idle.
New fuel line and impulse line was already on poulan 365. So I pulled the carb apart to check diaphragms and fulcrum height. Carb kit looked new, but I went ahead and replaced the needle and fulcrum.
Then went to make some test cuts, runs cuts and still no idle for crap.

So quick check for a air leak. Turned on one side and then other side, off raced the idle when flipped to the other side. 

So my guess is leaking crankcase seal and will check main bearings when looking closer.

Could be a bad carb boot . Make sure someone didnt use tygon for a impulse line as well.

Keven  short term the Tygon style line will work but it wont take much heat and gets to giving trouble after  a while.

I uesally try to use OEM lines but if I can'g get them I use a rubber line like the Homelite fuel lines.
