Why Efco Chainsaw engine will not start?

  Kristin NielsenJul 27, 2025
  Your Efco Chainsaw engine might not start due to several reasons. It could be due to bad or old fuel mix. Ensure you are using fresh fuel (less than 30 days old) and the correct 2-cycle oil mix. Another reason might be that the ignition switch is turned off. Ensure the ignition switch is in the start position. A disconnected spark plug wire could also be the cause, so make sure it is properly connected. Finally, you might be using an incorrect starting procedure. Refer to the manual for the correct starting procedure.

  If the bar and chain on your Efco Chainsaw are running hot and smoking, it could be due to a few reasons. First, check if the bar and chain oil tank is empty and fill it with bar and chain oil if needed. Another potential cause is that the chain tension is too tight. Adjust the chain tension as per the instructions in the manual. Lastly, the oiler might not be functioning correctly. Run the saw at full throttle for 30 seconds, then stop it and check for oil dripping from the guide bar. If there is no oil, contact a servicing dealer.

  Poor cutting performance in your Efco Chainsaw can be caused by a chain installed backwards. Ensure the chain is properly installed on the guide bar, with the cutters on top facing towards the bar tip in the direction of chain rotation. Another cause could be a dull or damaged chain. Inspect the chain for dull or damaged cutters and have it sharpened or replaced as needed.

  If your Efco Chainsaw engine starts and runs, but the chain isn't rotating, the chain brake may be engaged. Release the chain brake. Alternatively, the chain tension might be too tight. Properly adjust the chain tension. Also, the guide bar and chain may be incorrectly assembled. Refer to the Owner’s Manual for proper installation.
