Hi All,
New member here with a small question.
I have a nine year old Husqvarna Model 272XP having an issue.
It probably has less than fifteen hours on it, it has sat for several years.
She starts right up, but while cutting she konks out.
It sounds like it runs out of gas.
She will come back to life after a couple of pulls and then repeat this scenario.
The only other odd thing is I can get it to idle for about five or so seconds with the choke out when restarting. ( maybe this means something )?
It never did this perviously with the choke out.
Not sure if I should trash her and buy a new saw.
What stinks is I am not a frequent cutter and it will spend a lot of time in the garage like this one has done.
I have to drop several trees soon, so calling someone in to do it would cost as much or more that a saw anyway.
Thanks, any help or advice would be appreciated.
