Picked these 3 craftsman 38cc powersharp chainsaws today. The blue and red start, run and oil bar. The red one had rear and front handle AV.
Yellow one missing rope and handle so no clue there.

Will try and get these into someones hands that like these models.  Will sell or trade just PM me.

The yellow and blue one have oil under the black button on handle. The red one had like a dummy button that is level and no words under it like the other 2.  Any info?

Not up on the info on these as I usually just fix or part them out.

All 3 craftsman and always had auto with manual oiler too. All my poulans in past too. But this Red one is the only one I have seen like this with a dummy button. Maybe newer version.

Few of them have that black plastic on/off switch too.

blue yellow have the manual button and black plastic switch. Red one with AV has the metal on/off and dummy button.

Though all three saws are Sears 38cc powersharps, as you can tell by the previous posts, they now have regular chains and there are other subtle differences besides color for they are apparently different ages?
We should share what we know... someone may learn...
That knowledge can live after us... and that "Pays It Forward".

Looking to take rear handle saws in trade for these.  Saws that a homeowner type would use for trimming or firewood cutting.

Yellow craftsman was eating at me wondering if runner. Put a recoil rope in, pulley fastener, handle etc from the green parts saw.  Piston looked good looking at it through back half of muffler. She lives, runs and oils.

red one wear 3/8lp 7 rim and the blue and yellowing wearing 1/4 9 rims

I get caught up. I thought I will take the red 2.3 38cc and the newer micro 2.3 cva and compare them in a pine cant.

Red is wearing 3/8 7T rim and I think the 2300cva has a 6T spur.  I have a 6T spur for the red one from a green saw But I aint going to switch them just for testing. Even though I know I should to keep it all even. But IMO the older ones are alot stronger in the cuts anyways.
Though I still like the newer micros for ease of parts etc.

I might even sharpen 1 of the 1/4" chains and run it on the yellow and blue ones with 9T 1/4 rims.
