Title: Husqvarna 55
Post by: pnbiondo on December 18, 2016, 08:51:16 PM
I have a Husqvarna 55 which quit on me when I was cutting a large branch from a fallen tree about a week ago.  I can not get it to kickover to restart.  I have checked the gas, replaced the spark plug and gas filter.  Any other thoughts or ideas to check to get it to restart would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks

Does the plug fire when grounded against the cylinder? If it does, squirt some gas into the carb throat then try starting it on high idle but without choke. If it doesn't, disconnect the switch then try it.
