True electric vs. gas story.
Prolly 20 years ago my b-i-l offered to help me clear out some medium size trees at the back edge of my place, some standing, some down. I never had much need for a chainsaw, but had (and still do) a Craftsman 14" electric. I was able to reach the area with about 100 feet of extension cord. When the b-i-l showed up he brought some kinda Paul Bunyan gas chainsaw that was way overkill for what needed done, and he laughed asking "whattaya think yer gonna do with THAT THING?" I just said "we'll see".

He spent the next half hour, to no avail, trying to get his macho machine started while I merrily sawed along. He finally said I'm going home to get my other one. His 20 minute one way trip took him just over an hour because he "stopped to have lunch".

To his surprise (or dismay), I had all the cutting finished and there was nothing left but all the clean up. I told him "you get started on this and I'll go buy us a case of beer" which I did.....
after I stopped for lunch.

If you could keep the bottom end together, they ran good.

Fixing the 350 is your best bet. They are great saws, I have 3.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
