Husqvarna Craftsman 36cc, 16 In. Gas Chain Saw Logo

Related Topics:

Posted on Jul 05, 2010

I have a Craftsman 16 inch, 36cc, model 358.351061 chain saw. The fuel line broke. So I decided to replace all the lines. There is a large and small diameter line. Now it doesn't get fuel to the cylinder. It has two lines to the fuel tank. One large diameter the other is small. I'm not sure I have them connected properly. The primer bulb has connections for a large and small line. It also has markings for tank and carb. The carb has a large and small line connections. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Tom

SOURCE: Replacing 16

The second carburetor port feeds the primer (bleeder), returns excess fuel to tank.
Filtered line to carb, carb to bleeder, bleeder to tank (probably not visible and no hose in tank).

The print is deceptive, it appears the filtered line feed the bleeder it does not!

SOURCE: fuel lines on a craftsman chain saw need to be

just connect them both anyway you chose. press prime button a few times to pressurise tank. you get a 50/50 chance to get it right.
if it just sucking air release pressure first by removing filler cap to prevent face full of fuel then swap pipes over on carb. i did this job a couple of weeks a go on my husky66. only use proper flexy pipe from a lawn mower centre. costs about £2.50 / foot.

My craftsman chain saw 18 will not start

The 3 things needed for an engine to run:
1. Compression (Cylinder, Piston, rings, gaskets)
2. Ignition (Spark plug, ignition module/coil)
3. Fuel (Fuel lines, Carburetor, gaskets, bad fuel)

More than Likely I would start by checking fuel related since that is usually the biggest offender (fuel lines broken/dry rotted, bad carb.)

HOW DO YOU REPLACE FUEL LINES ON A CRAFTMAN CHAINSAW MODEL 358355160

The lines are usually a tight fit in the fuel tank. This prevents leaks. They must be pulled out of the tank (one at a time) then cut the new lines end in a "v" pattern, this will allow you to push the new line through the tank. Long needle nose pliers are needed too.

  • The hose in the tank with the filter on the free end connects directly to the carburetor input connection.
  • If the saw is equipped with a primer bulb, an output line from the carburetor connects to the suction side of the primer (once the bulb is collapsed it draws fuel from the tank through the carburetor to refill as it inflates).
  • The pressure side of the primer returns displaced fuel to the tank as it is depressed.
Take lots of notes and a few digital photographs to help with reassembly.

Sears model 358.356280 chainsaw. Just replaced

Sounds like you need to pull out the spark plug and put some fuel directly into the cylinder to get it fired up.

16" craftsman chainsaw primer pfoblem

Check the condition of the fuel line and filter in the tank and to the carb and primer.Today gas and time will soften them allowing them to become blocked or leak.Replace if needed.

Diagram of fuel line for Craftsman 16" chainsaw

Your saw is a Poulan. Try converting the cc to a model number. A 2.2cc Craftsman is often a Poulan model 2200. go to this link and find something that appears the same under (POULAN-WEED-EATER).

The IPL will help. Pay attention to the year there is a different area for older saws.
For a current saw Craftsman should have something available.
