Flooded Stihl 460

[marsingbob]

I have a clean stock 460. I flooded it today. Removed the spark plug and dried it with compressed air. Now when I try to start the saw it has a nasty kick back and jerks the rope out of my hand. I turned the saw over a few times with the plug out--maybe not enough times? Suggestions please.

Either a coil problem or flywheel key is sheared.

Crankcase is still flooded, may help to turn the saw upside down with the plug out and pull the recoil several times.
