Cut4Fun2,  thanks for the links!

I have the Craftsman version, model 358.35098;  from what I can tell it's the very same as the Poulan Pro PP5020AV,  except for the colors.   A small building supply warehouse near me had a bunch of returned Craftsman two-cycle equipment,  and I managed to get the only 358.35098 that they had.   I have no complaints for a hair under $60.00.
I'm a chainsaw hoarder & tinkerer.  The brand isn't usually important,  if the price is right I'll probably buy it.

There's a 5020 around here for $75 but I cant get in contact with the seller. I just want to buy to test ride it.

Are they still this price?

 Best I can find on  the craftsman 35098 50cc 20" is $120 shipped used return.


Just found a PP5020AV new shipped to the house for $170     

Specs manuals etc can be found below.

I was at the warehouse a several weeks back,  & they had sold all of the Craftsman equip.  When they had all of the Craftsman equip,  I only found one 358.35098 (5020).  I frequently see the Craftsman versions listed on eBay,  but the bidding varies,  one might bring $80.00 and another might bring $120.00.

I ordered some parts for this saw last week. Cheapest parts I've bought in a while. Easy Pull Start pulley kit(pulley, hub, EPS spring) was $1.41 my cost and a sprocket was around $3.00! Might ought to stock up. I need to ask someone how many they've built.

All I have read is that Mark said 5020 had less torque in the cut then the 330 and 330 was stronger. That is expected IMO considering the 5020 50cc and 330 54cc. 
 Just like the PP325 partner 5500 53cc is noticeably stronger and more torque in the cut then the partner 5000 49cc.
 or 45cc 346 compared to 50cc 346 same thing noticed.

I have a good running grey craftsman 49cc aka poulan 3000 with bare bore to compare to. 

1st thing I plan on doing is never installing the 20".  Going to put a 16" on from the get go in 3/8. Then maybe 325 later too since that is what the 3000 has on it. Will test with same set ups on both in 3/8 and 325.

What bar mount is on the 5020?  K041 or K095  ?
