Very difficult to pull starter rope; seems like flywheel seized; partial or no movement. fresh fuel mix; spark plugclean and spark present.
Will it pull any easier with the spark plug out?

Testimonial: "Yes. Checked piston movement. Fine. Am able to turn flywheel easily with spark plug in or out. However, when attach starter rope, it pulls out in rough hard jerky motion. It is almost impossible to get rope pull to extend to the full length of rope. Sometimes it will only pull out a few inches. "

Did you check for spark when the plug was out? It should be blue and snappy. If not, you need to expose the flywheel assembly by removing the left case cover, then remove the stop switch wire from the ignition module. If now sparks, check the stop switch and connecting wire for grounding. If still no spark, replace the ignition module. Use a thin businees card for a gap gauge--turn the magnets under the module, insert the card into the gaps, then loosen the mounting screws and let the module stick to the magnets. Tighten the screws and rotate the flywheel to remove the card, then turn the flywheel one full rotation and check that the gap doesn't close up at any point. If the original test had good spark, then pour some fuel mix into the plug hole and attempt start--if you get several pops, then check the fuel system. Start with checking the fuel filter which will commonly plug up over time and check the fuel lines for decay or damage. Does the primer button pull fuel into it when pumped several times?

Note carefully the items within the lower chamber as they are critical to proper running. Hope this helps!
SOURCE: Husqvarna Chain Saw Rope Pulls Very Hard, what is the cause?????????
Has it always done this or has it developed?
Some saws have a decompression button to make it easier to pull over.
SOURCE: HUSQVARNA model 435 Difficult starting
the problem is in the ignition coil.it needs to be replaced.it is under warranty.its warranty is life time.call husqvarna and they will either send you a new one or send you to a husqvarna dealer to fix the problem.that is at no cost to you..............let me know if this helped.................
SOURCE: recoil spring on homelite chain saw doesn't retract pull rope
Easy suggestion would be to get new spring coil. Is it older saw? Have had to change mine on poulan saws before.
SOURCE: starter rope will not pull. Will pull smoothly
If I understand what you are saying... The starter pulls smoothly with the starter cover removed or when installed and the plug removed (no compression or spark). If this is correct I think your saw's timing has slipped or maybe a defective decomp valve. Time to visit your neighborhood chainsaw seller/mechanic.HTH
