  Amber FranklinAug 9, 2025
  If your Husqvarna Chainsaw starts but doesn't stay running, several factors could be at play. It might be due to incorrect fuel type, in which case you should drain the current fuel and use the correct type. Another possibility is a clogged air filter, so cleaning it may resolve the issue. Also, a clogged fuel filter can cause this problem, so consider replacing it. If the engine will not idle properly, contact your servicing dealer.

  The Husqvarna Chainsaw engine may not start due to several reasons. The starter pawls might be blocked, in which case you should adjust or replace them, or clean around the pawls. The fuel tank might contain incorrect fuel, or chain oil, so drain the tank and refill it with the correct fuel. The spark plug could be dirty or wet, so ensure the spark plug is dry and clean.

  Misty CalhounAug 27, 2025
  If your Husqvarna chainsaw isn't sparking, it could be due to several reasons related to the spark plug. The spark plug might be contaminated or wet, so ensure it's dry and clean. An incorrect spark plug gap could also be the problem; clean the spark plug and check that the electrode gap is correct, also make sure the spark plug is fitted with a suppressor and refer to technical data for correct electrode gap. Finally, a loose spark plug can cause this, so retighten it.
