Stihl Gas Chainsaw 029

029 starting problems
Posted by jls43 on Jul 1st, 2008 at 10:32am

My 029 has been running perfectly for years until recently. When the saw is cold it starts up pretty easy, when it warms up and turned off, it's almost impossible to restart. I replaced the plug and it started right up so I thought that was the problem, but once it warmed up and I shut it down, I couldn't get it to start. Any suggestion? Luke

    sounds like your saw is running to rich try lean it out and adjust your idle try changing fuel filter and get higher octane fuel like89 or better new air cleaner to hope this helps
