       The Husqvarna service bulletin updates for models 350, 351, 353,
       346, 357, and 359 detail a range of improvements over the years,
       including upgraded ignition modules with better moisture
       protection, stronger clutch springs, improved starters, new air
       filters, and redesigned clutch covers for stability. Notably, in
       2001 a new Viton crank Agricultural bearing

       holder was introduced,
       changing from black to brown for better durability and sealing,

       of critical components like TBS bearings
