Saw flooding can be overcome by reading the owners manual. Yeah, like that's going to happen. So here is how you start either a husky or Jred. If saw has on off switch, put it in on position. Either pull choke on, or if saw has single lever put in choke on position. Pull starter rope till you hear saw pop one time. (If you use decomp the pop is difficult to hear. Sounds more like a pfft) After saw pops one time, take choke off. Saw is now set in fast idle position. If you move throttle trigger it will un set fast idle. Do not touch trigger. Pull rope till saw starts. Usually one or two pulls. Let saw fast idle for 10 seconds or so and then blip throttle. Saw will slow down to normal idle. If you pull trigger before starting saw and taking it out of fast idle , the saw will flood. After saw has warmed up, all you need to do is have saw in on position and pull rope. Just remember pulling choke on and putting it back off sets saw to fast idle. Touching throttle after that unsets the fast idle.
