How long does it take to cut 8 to 10 cords with your 2.3 Craftsman and what diameter was the wood?That must be one tough little saw.
I used my first one alot and I had it for 25 years before I wore it out. Only did fuel lines a carb kit and a oiler diaphram in that time also.
Well I only have one of them saws right now and it has a perfect piston and rings in it. Got any rings or pistons for a 245A?

since I don't own any chainsaw stock really don't have a dog in the hunt but when I see someone having trouble getting an air filter cover off I have a little trouble with anything else he has to say.

I was surprised to find anyone would have trouble removing the air filter cover,
my 2450 poulan is one of the easier saws to work on, try replacing piston rings on a Solo 611
Drilling the baffle out makes a huge difference to performance with poulans, anyway for a cheap saw I think their ok.
There's no glory in comparing pro saws to consumer saws...

craftsman 2.3
i got teh saw last april,,, and had quite a pile of logs from the township tree crews,, most was oak,, some maple and ash also, and a tree guy working down the street brought a big dump truck of hemlock,, it was all 4-8" long ,, some up to 18-20" dia, but mostly 8-12" dia....i spent most of the spring and early summer cuttin & splittin (with an ax), couple hours a day.... it is quite a nice little saw,,, i had the pros clean out and elevate my big pin oak, and i helped them cut up teh wood,, they were pretty impressed with it also...
don't get me wrong, its not a stihl,, but its the best craftsman saw i've ever run......
