Craftsman 358352360 chainsaw Parts

On the Craftsman 358352360 gas chainsaw, we typically find the serial number stamped into the engine housing or crankcase on a flat spot near the muffler area. Once you locate it, record it exactly as shown so you can match parts and documentation correctly.

Check these common serial-number locations first:

• On a flat surface of the engine housing or crankcase
• To the left or right of the muffler when viewing from the top
• Near the starter housing area (recoil side) on some builds
• On a label plate if your saw uses a decal instead of a stamp

Many gas chainsaws use a numeric serial format. A common pattern is a 9-digit number that often starts with 1, 2, or 5. Use the full number, including any leading digits.

• Clean the area with a dry rag first; avoid soaking the label area with solvent
• Use a flashlight at a low angle to highlight stamped numbers
• Take a close-up photo and zoom in to confirm each digit
• Write the number down twice and compare for accuracy

The serial number helps confirm the exact production version of your Craftsman chainsaw so you can choose the correct bar, chain, fuel system parts, and service information. For model-specific specs and identification notes, use the 358352360 owner's manual. If you need to order parts after identifying your unit, you can search by model on Sears PartsDirect.

On a Craftsman gas chainsaw like model 358352360, the model number is typically printed on a sticker or stamped on a metal plate on the saw body (powerhead). Check the areas around the rear handle, starter housing, and near the fuel and oil caps; then confirm the exact model on the owner's manual.

Look for a paper label, foil sticker, or small metal tag in these spots:

• On the powerhead near the rear handle or control handle
• On or near the starter housing (recoil starter cover)
• Near the fuel cap area
• Near the oil cap/oiler area
• Along the bar clamp side of the housing
• Under the top cover (if your saw has a removable cover)

Most chainsaw ID tags include a few fields. Here is what to look for:

We use the model number to match the correct parts and diagrams for your exact chainsaw. For example, the correct cutting setup and fuel system parts can vary by model; using the right model number helps you choose the right chain, bar, and fuel or oil line parts the first time.

If the label is missing or unreadable, use the parts list and diagrams for model 358352360 to identify components by shape and location. Common replacement items for this model include the chain 91PX056G and bar 140SDEA041.

For the Craftsman 358352360 gas chainsaw, we use a 40:1 fuel mix (40 parts gasoline to 1 part 2-cycle oil) as specified in the owner's manual. Using a leaner mix such as 50:1 reduces lubrication and can overheat and seize a 2-cycle engine.

Use fresh, regular unleaded gasoline and a high-quality 2-cycle, air-cooled engine oil mixed in an approved container (not in the fuel tank).

• Mix fuel thoroughly in a separate container before filling the tank
• Use the correct ratio every time; consistency matters more than “extra oil”
• Too much oil can foul the spark plug and cause poor running
• Too little oil, or the wrong oil type, can overheat and seize the engine
• Do not use automotive oil
• Do not use BIA (boating) oil

Your chainsaw is a 2-cycle engine, so the oil in the fuel is the engine’s lubrication. The correct gasoline-to-oil ratio protects internal parts from heat and friction, helps prevent scoring and seizure, and supports reliable starting and acceleration.

If your saw is hard to start or runs rough after fueling, stale fuel or an incorrect mix is a top cause. Our tips for a hard to start chainsaw guide walks through the most common checks.

If you need replacement parts while servicing the fuel system, you can order model-matched parts from the list for this saw, or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect.

We recommend matching the number on the saw’s ID label to 358352360 before ordering parts.

• Check the ID plate or decal on the powerhead (often near the starter housing or rear handle)
• Write down the full model number exactly as shown
• If there’s also a serial number, record it for reference
• Use the model number when looking up the correct guide bar and chain
• Use the model number when selecting fuel and oil system parts

Even when two saws are both described as 16-inch, the chain pitch, drive link count, and bar mount can differ. For this model page, examples of compatible cutting components include:

Using the wrong model number is one of the top reasons chains, bars, and fuel system parts get mis-ordered. With 358352360, you can match the correct operator guidance (starting, fueling, chain tension) and select parts like fuel/oil lines, caps, and carburetor gaskets with confidence.
