I have a Husqvarna 50 chainsaw I am having problems starting the saw. I haven't used the saw in years. Do I need to empty the old gas and add new gas. Also does this unit use regular gas or mixed gas.
Yes trying new fuel mix might work especially if the unit has been sitting as some fuel go bad in as little as 30 days. I get equipment where the fuel will not even burn when an open flame is applied.
You're probably in for a carburetor cleaning and rebuild too. Usually the metering diaphragm at least is probably stiffen (hardern) from time.

It is a 50:1 fuel mix.
