Hi Captain, and welcome home!

I like my Poulan 42cc, and the reason I chose it over the 46cc when I bought it was to avoid having to make up an intake manifold like you have to do on the 46cc. The 42cc is rather heavy though. I think mine weighs around 4.5 lbs. if I remember correctly. I have been told the 46cc is lighter....
