I got my 3500 in late 98 and it was my Pro chain saw for several years.

Cut4fun had a couple Tim Taylor The Tool Man specials that are somewhat like a 3750 and they would out cut the 3500 noticeably.

I discovered the intake, carb, and muffler are different. I think the carb is a HDA-49? I think some of Efco 65's used this carb too?

But my 3500 was a lot better than the plastic home owner saws I also had at the time and still is. It runs and looks like new.

My 365 Special Huskies will run circles around it and so will my Dolmar 6000iH.

Is there on your 3500 a tag anywhere telling what type you have.  I II III or IV

When we were talking about 3500's earlier in another thread. About the one 660mag has here. Did we come up with 54cc and 60cc 3500's?  Depending on type 1 2 3 etc?

I think so.  I believe the type III 3500 is the one that shares the same cylinder and the 3750 60cc saw just as the type III 3450.  I have not done alot of research on the 3500 so I do not know for sure.

I think it is the PP365 60cc cyl that is used on the T-3 3500.  They have the smaller carb and smaller intake 3500 PP365.

Thanks guys for the refresh.

I have been working on 2 of my 3 burnt up 3500s and they all have the same 60cc cylinder my 365 have and they are type one models.  I need intake boots and they are not available. Have you guys tried anything other than OEM boots? I have a couple 066 boots that I think will work.

I always wondered if the bigger 330 3750 380 intake boots would work.  Let us know.  ;)

If I had ever tried to port a 3000 305 335 3300 etc that was what I was going to try with the bigger carb also.

I have seen the boots for the 3750 on ebay, but not for the others. 

I like the idea of the bigger boot and carb on a 335 and would be interesting.

Thanks guys for the refresh.

So the cylinder on a 3750 has a larger intake port than the 365.  The transfers and exaust ports are the same then.

I am going to have to start measuring this stuff when I have these saws apart for now on.   I think I assume to much by just looking.

The PP330/PP380/3450/3750 boot is still available new for $10-$12 from several places.  I just ordered one for my PP330 (even though the old one 'looks' fine).  Maybe that can be made to work.  You may need the larger metal clamp pieces (that go on either side of the boot flange and plastic carb mount plate) from the PP330/etc saws.............and you may have to enlarge the pass-through hole in your plastic carb mount plate.  Just looked up the parts.  Looks like one of the two metal plates is shared between the 3500 and the newer saws.


530049273 is the 3450 'stud bracket'  SAME AS THE 3450 PART

530049465 is the 3450 'intake bracket' ($1.11 at ereplacementparts)

530027121 is the 3500 'intake bracket' (different than the 3450 part.......so the 'boot hole' is probably smaller in diameter).

530030302 is the 3450 boot ($11.00)

530027285 is the 3450 boot clamp assy. Also the same as the 3500 part.  This means that the boot spigot (on the cylinder) must be at least close in diameter between the two saws (3500 and 3450).  I bet it's the same.

I'll measure the boot spigot diameter on my PP330 cylinder while I'm out in the shop today.
