I have inherited my fathers old craftsman 917.353750 3.7 17" chainsaw. I have gotten this running and it seems to run very well and have lots of power. the last time it was used someone busted a tooth on the end of the bar sprocket. I need to replace the bar and get a new chain. I have searched and searched and not finding much. I have determined it is a .325 pitch with
.05 gauge chain with 71 drive links. the clutch and drive sprocket and in excellent shape. I am looking for someone that can tell me a useable guide bar and chain that will work for this saw. I don't mind going up or down an inch or so to a 16" or 18" guide and chain as it seems there are no 17" chains available. But I need to know what I can use. Any help would be greatly appreciated. By the way it will be used only occasionally for light duty around the house work.
