Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): 041 AV Chainsaw, kill switch, condenser


Question
When I put this away last year it was running fine. This year no spark. I replaced the coil which had no continuity. Then the points and condenser with solid state. Then I disconnected the kill switch and still no spark. Oh, I gapped the coil at .015. What is the next step?

Answer
Hello Richard:

The New Coil can be Bad or the Ign Module you Purchased May be the Wrong Module for this Saw. Solid State Ign Modules are Not All the Same. Make Sure the Solid State Ign Module is the One Called for to Replace the Point Set on your Saw. The 041 looks like a Stihl Model Number. Stihl Offers no Online Viewing for Breakdowns, Diagrams or Manuals. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Thanks.

Good Luck
