Why won't my Husqvarna 460 Rancher engine start?
- DDawn GonzalesJul 30, 2025
If your Husqvarna Chainsaw engine won't start, several factors could be the cause. It could be due to blocked starter pawls, which would require you to adjust or replace them. Ensure you are using the correct fuel type; if not, drain the tank and refill with the correct fuel. Also, a dirty or wet spark plug can prevent starting, so ensure it's clean and dry. Check that the spark plug is tightened and that the electrode gap is correct, using the recommended spark plug type. If the engine is flooded from repeated starts with full choke, remove and clean the spark plug, lay the chainsaw on its side with the spark plug hole facing away, and pull the starter rope 6-8 times before reassembling the spark plug and attempting to start.
