RE: Well, here goes nothing! Poulan 46 conversion RUNS.
I did the modification that RCIGN! described. The Garolite I bought was Garolite CE. It was a little less expensive. I have a 12" X 12"
sheet, minus a 1.75" square. The mod went as RCIGN1 instructed. I'm waiting for the JB Weld to cure, so I can clean up the inside of the carb inlet throat. It sure seems solid. I made the mod to the Carb as well. The local saw shops didn't have a fuel fitting, so I got a 10-32 Brass pressure tap, and mounted it on the boss I drilled out. The inside dimension is the same as the 8-32 I put on the bypass port, so it should work fine. I'll let ya'll know how it ends up. If anybody wants to buy some Garolite, send me an email and we'll come up with something. I can't imagine ever using all this.
