My Husqvarna chainsaw apparently overheated, shut down and will not start again. Is there hope of rebuilding it? or should I just forget it?

SOURCE: Saw will not start Husqvarna 350

Hi

An engine needs three things to run(fuel and air mixed together in the correct proportions,compresion of the fuel/air mixture and ignition).Make carb adjustments,check the compression and the spark from the sparkplug.Priming the engine(put some gas into the sparkplug hole).Try to start the engine.If engine is running only the gas from the cilinder,the chain saw has a fuel delivery problem.Disassembly the carb and clean the inner parts.Check the fuel and air filters,fuel hose and gas tank ventil.

good luck!savumihai71

SOURCE: Can't set carb. on Husqvarna chainsaw.

Most chainsaws and small engines are 1.5 turns out.

You need to set the mixtures for the carburetor. You will find a Low and High adjustment screw. At idle turn the screw in or clockwise until the rps starts to decrease. Then start turning it out till you hit max idle rpms. Turn screw back in a quarter to half turn and it should be idling smoothly. Be careful here and get someone to hold saw if necessary but hold in throttle to full speed and do the same with high adjustment screw. turn it in till rpm starts to drop then back it out until you get to max rpm and it won't go any higher then turn it back in a half a turn.

Won't start when motor is warm. Saw for half hour and shut it off and it refuses to start again

this sure sounds as if it's an overheating problem , this causes the ign ckt to over heat and shut off the spark at the plug , id get a real good look at the cooling fins and make double sure theres no sawdust or other stuff in there blocking up the works , if you continue to run saw to overheat eventually it will damage the ign ckt to the point it wont come back on and saw wont run ,Period.

I use strong compressed air to blow out stuff stuck down in the ribs of saws(wear glasses )

I have a husqvarna 435 chainsaw that will not stay running. Cold start it runs good for 1 minute then just shuts off. Starts again but will shut right off. Any suggestions?

The ethanol in gasoline softens fuel lines to the point they collapse.
Change the fuel lines and use non ethanol gasoline. [ Very expensive]

My chainsaw starts and runs but the chain won't turn so it shuts itself off. What am I doing wrong?

Check the braking bar. You usually start the chainsaw with the brake in the 'on' as a safety feature. You have to release the brake before powering up the chain, otherwise you are fighting against the brake and the engine will shut down. Hope this helps.

Shuts down for reason

soundslike it could be overheating, check the system fan and buy a can of compressed air and blast it through the vents and fan systems, hopefully this will resolve the problem
