Im 250 nailer wont fire new gas , all good battery charged cant seem to see spark what next

most probably a faulty firing pin, but I recommend you visit the attached link, it worked for me with my sporadic firing Im 250. Fixing Paslode gas framing gun that wont fire or fires intermittently

has spark? has fuel going to carb? if you smell gas from the muffler or carb then it not burning check for spark pull plug touch away from the hole so you don't ignite the vapors on the engine look for a great blue red spark

Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote about the Paslode nailers and the problems that can come up with them.

I also have a link to the Paslode manuals which contain Paslode cleaning and troubleshooting guides.

If you need parts for your Paslode, there also is a link for a site that sells the Paslode nailer parts.

Make sure the battery is charged - it will not provide good combustion.

Next - make sure the plunger is fully depressed - there is an adjustment on the side.

Finally - check for proper operation of the trigger.

Start with the basics:
First check that the butane (or whatever gas is used) canister is full. If empty, put in a new one.

Second check to make sure your battery is fully charged to be able to fire the spark to work the nail gun. If not get the battery charged and/or replaced as needed.

Third make sure all of the safeties are working properly and that you have them engaged to the piece of wood you are nailing when you try the trigger.

If beyond that it does not work it could be a bad trigger, a bad safety switch, or even a bad connection from the battery to the device.

Hi,
Probably needs cleaning. You`ll need two new o`rings.

sounds like its losing presure when fireing it could be the next oring if its the rubber one replace if its the metal one take them out and clean the grove they sit in and make sure u space them, meaning the gap in the rings should be set 180 deg apart. this should work if u r getting a spark when the gun is apart. the cable could be making a bad contact at the spark unit and when u r checking this make sure its getting a good contact at the spark plug as well hope this helps u.

Hi .I had the same problem with my gun,have you tried taking the fan housing off and cleaning the sparking point then oil and reassemble this seemed to wok on mine

K, this could be a couple problems. How far down did you take it to clean? Are you comfortable with removing the combustion chamber/housing from unit. There are 4 screws in the top cover and 2 down where the work contact is. Remove them leaving just the fan assembly and handle housing. Next locate the roller arm next to the fan assembly, put a fresh battery in tool and push the arm (KEEPING HANDS AWAY FROM FAN) the fan should come on, if not you probably have an electronic assembly that is bad, if it does come on it should stop in a few seconds. Next depress the trigger and again the fan should come on. Now to diagnose the firing unit. Depress the lever on the roller arm and hold in while pulling trigger, you should see a spark and also hear it where the plug is. If not then you either have a spark unit that is bad or a wiring problem. At this point I would take in for repair. The spark unit is around 90-100 dollars When you put back together did you also replace the orings or clean the ring grooves? Let me know if you have any questions

Does the fan run and the light blink ont he nailer? I have one that I just bought. I put in the wrong type of nails and got one stuck. I had to take the front apart to clear it and now the damm thing wont fire. The green light blinks and the gas cartridge is basically full, even the fan does run after I release the push lever, but no fire???

I wonder if yours is the same as mine did fire for a couple nails first just fine then got jammed...

I will try to charge the battery more.... MAybe like yours it needs a strong charge for the spark...
