Got an old Poulan Model 361 that leaks gas at the split flang on the bottom of the unit. It runs so darn good that I'd like to fix it but have several questions that maybe someone could help me with. Is this type of repair worth fixing or is it near impossible to stop the leak? It looks like the clutch is LH threaded on the shaft and is removed with some sort of spanner type wrench. Is this true? Where can I get the tool? Lastly, what is the approximate age of this saw? I bought it at a tag sale back in 1982.

junk it. I've seen a lot of these fights & you always lose. If you put a new gasket in, the case may be warped & not fit back even with new gasket. Stuff you put in tank & slosh around to seal the tank doesnt work either. What will result is a fire right next to you. Seen that several times in the old days. Newer saws dont seem to develop leaks unless truck runs over'em.

I've had luck removing the clutch with a pair of strong pliers. You stick the handles in the clutch and put a screwdriver in the mouth of the pliers crossway to act as a turning handle.
