Product Information

Manufacturer: Poulan

Product Number: 545160401

Classification: Part

Weight: 0.01 lbs.

Shipping: Ships Worldwide

Description:

This is an authentic OEM sourced replacement piston ring used on Poulan gas powered chainsaws. A worn or a broken piston ring will allow gases to escape the seal and enter the crankcase. This would causes low compression and a loss of power. If compression is reduced significantly, the engine will not run at all. This part is made out of metal and is sold individually.

To complete this repair you will need a set of wrenches, pliers and a screwdriver.

Warning: California's Proposition 65
