  If your Husqvarna Chainsaw has low power, try these solutions: Adjust the H screw. Check for blockages in the fuel tank vent or fuel filter. Inspect for a leaking or blocked impulse channel. Also, check for a loose cover on the carburettor pump side, a faulty pump diaphragm, or a blocked air filter. Other potential issues include a sticking needle valve assembly, a leak in the metering system, an incorrectly assembled metering system, a loose diaphragm rivet, a hole in the diaphragm, or a leaking control diaphragm/cover plate.

Why Husqvarna 135 Chainsaw won't start?
- W
  Wendy ObrienAug 25, 2025
  A Husqvarna chainsaw might fail to start due to several reasons: binding pawls, which may require adjustment, cleaning, or replacement. The fuel type could be incorrect, necessitating a drain and replacement with the correct fuel. The spark plug might be contaminated, wet, loose, or have an incorrect gap, requiring cleaning, drying, retightening, or gap adjustment. Adjust the idling speed with the T-screw.
