    Craftsman 42cc spark issues

    Well guys I just want to thank you for helping me with this. I didn't really do a lot different but you all help to confirm what I thought. The ign module wasn't getting a good enough ground. Once I messed around with it enough to get a good reading on my meter I had good spark. Needless to...

    Craftsman 42cc spark issues

    I just need to figure out how to get the bottom plastic off so I can check the tab and screw. Haven't got that far yet.

    Craftsman 42cc spark issues

    Not yet. I haven't had time for some "garage therapy" yet. But I did do the trick with the plug and the wire to ground it. Tried spinning with drill too. This weekend for sure I should get at it.. I did check that grounding clip. It seems to have continuity to the case. I thought maybe the...

    Craftsman 42cc spark issues

    Thank you very much. I thought it was pretty messed up too. I couldn't find anything but the old saw on sears site.

    Craftsman 42cc spark issues

    That is the Model # on the saw. I know I found the same thing with it being an old saw model #. The other info on the tag is: Family/Disp: 9PWES.0424CN/42cc and Serial # 09124D400265 06:13. It's a newer saw for sure. My friend said he bought it new a few years ago. I took the part # off...

    Craftsman 42cc spark issues

    I tested with my inline tester that has exactly that. You can adjust the gap on it and watch the spark inside the tube. No spark. I thought about grounding the coil somewhere else but I've yet to locate a good spot. The whole saw is plastic. I will take your advice and make up some new wires...

    Craftsman 42cc spark issues

    Thanks for your reply. I will check for continuity from the lams to cylinder. Air gap was set correct. I'll have to double check the flywheel. I thought it checked out but I'll look again. I just don't understand how I get spark checking one way but not two other ways. There is no fire for...

    Craftsman 42cc spark issues

    A friend asked me to fix his Craftsman saw. He said it wouldn't start. It's a newer one (I believe a Poulan) Model 358.350880. When I check for spark using a tester with a light bulb in it it shows spark but with a different type of tester that actually sparks, no spark. No spark when plug is...

    Tophandles: Poulan XXV vs. Homelite Super 2 vs. Mini Mac

    I have 2 of the Poulans and 1 of the Homelites at this time. I have had others as well but I sold them. I very much prefer the Poulan in the group. Way more power.

    Mostly lurking bud, do a lot more reading than typing. Good to hear from you as well!

    Husqvarna 50 big-bore upgrade question

    As the new owner of Mark's saw he's right I am VERY happy with this saw. If something would ever happen to it I'll be looking at this mod though.

    Husqvarna Model 51 chainsaw?

    I would take the 51 over the 250. The price seems little steep to me though. Welcome to the site.
