Husky 51 - starting issues - solved (huge grin/fist pump)

[eriklane]

Got a 51 on Craigs for $40, 'doesn't run right'...Hmm, I can fix that. Ring was toast, put a new one in, bam, great saw. But I'd been having issues with it starting...came to a head last weekend. Compression fine, good gas, plug wasn't new but, it was fine...hmm. Check spark, not so great, smallish, blue. Hmm. Takes out coil, the entire pickup was COVERED with oily sawdust, you couldn't even see it. HOLY COW! 10 second spray of and reinstall, gap, recoil cover on, bam, instant start up.

*standing with hands on hips, huge grin, looking for the next battle to win*

Gotta love it.

Don't you love it when you find it and it is something simple, especially when it doesn't cost any more money?
