From what i can tell these are the same saws the only difference is the gas tank
Is this correct?

does anyone know if you can put a tank from a 245 onto a 306a?

The connecting rod is also different with the 245 using a larger wrist pin.
They shared the 306A's later 2 tin mufflers. I don't think the 245 ever had a cast aluminum muffler but I'm not certain on it. The earlier model 4.5 ci saw did use the cast muffler though.

I believe the handle bar is different on the 245. I have not seen any differernce in the ignition systems between the two unless one is old enough to have points.
Ahh. So to swap ends, you'd need the rod from the donor saw as well. I thought you could just swap P&Cs. Thanks for the heads up.
I forgot all about the wrist pin Mark.
All the 306 tin mufflers always seemed to have a smaller exit than a 245 but I never gave it a whole lot of thought.
I've often thought about putting the 306 cast muffler on a 245 to see what that thing would sound like if it would fit.:monkey:
