  If your Craftsman Chainsaw doesn't start, several factors could be the cause. Ensure you are following the correct starting procedures. Check and fill the fuel tank with properly mixed fuel. Clean, gap, or replace the spark plug if it's fouled. Also, make sure you press the primer bulb fully and slowly 10 times. If the issue persists, the carburetor mixture adjustment setting may be incorrect, and you may need to have it adjusted by a qualified service dealer.

  Angela EdwardsAug 23, 2025
  If your Craftsman Chainsaw starts but has low power, the fuel filter may be plugged and needs replacement. Ensure the lever is in Position 3. A dirty spark arrestor screen can cause this issue, so replace it. Clean and reinstall the air filter if it's dirty. Also, the carburetor mixture adjustment setting may be incorrect, and you may need to have it adjusted by a qualified service dealer.
