I bought this saw about two years ago (and only use the saw two or three times a year) and have had problem after problem. The saw is hard to start; has leaked bar oil from the first use, and the fuel filler cap has swelled to the point that I have to use a wrench to take it off and to put it back on (I now sand the fuel cap threads every time I add fuel). From what I see on the internet you cannot get a replacement cap for this saw that will not swell when exposed to fuel containing alcohol. Today, the pump for the bar oil stopped working. I will take this saw to the dump and buy a new chain saw. The new saw will not be a Poulan. I would not recommend anyone buy this saw. I gave the saw a one star rating because there was not an option for rating it lower.
