Question:

New Husq 240 chainsaw will not start

Details:

followed the instructions to the letter ( except for the decompression valve step as this model doesn't seem to have one ) - stepped through it 3 times now - watched the video off the web site - the unit won't even partially fire. Never had this much trouble with a 2 cycle - My Husq yard trimmer is a breeze to start.

I have the same issue with my Husqvarna 3120 XP... which I WAS going to use to make lumber last weekend.

I have two Husqvarna model 240 saws which are hard to start by following the instructions. I found that a tie-wrap to hold the throttle open usually works.
