Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Poulan 306A Chainsaw, poulan 306a, starter cord


Question
Won't start. No fuel on plug after several pulls and no fuel in gas line anywhere from filter to carb inlet. New filter, new line.
Also, should I be able to see an arc on the spark plug when I pull the starter cord, with the plug removed but still attached to the spark wire?
Thanks in advance

Answer
Yes you should be able to see spark if the plug is properly grounded.

It sounds like a carb issue. The carb most likely will either have to be rebuilt or replaced.
My advise is to replace carbs these days. Replacing the carb is a better chance of the unit running good then rebuilding. And carbs aren't that expensive.
