SOURCE: poulan 46cc has very little power
you need to adjust the gas an air on those two little screws on the carburator

Have you ever had your saw tuned? Your local Stihl dealer will usually do it for ±$40.00. That will probably fix it for years to come. Did you store it (6 months) with fuel in the tank? Fuel today contains ethanol, it is corrosive. The fuel lines on your saw are not formulated to resist its effect.
It is difficult to access your need for a chainsaw. Would an electric work? If yes Poulan offers 8 different models. Be wary of buying off brands, parts are difficult to find and they stop production with little warning. If it must be gas I recommend you purchase it from a seller/mechanic not a big box store. It may be a little more expensive but a chainsaw shop will help you when a problem arises and you know where to take it for service.
If your 2000 were mine I'd at least get a repair estimate from a local chainsaw shop. HTH

IMO for a professional grade saw Dolmar/Makita (dealers are scarce) offer the most saw for the least money. Husqvarna and Stihl make fine products as well.
SOURCE: pouland chain saw won't start, seems to not be
1) How have you determined that there is no spark?
2) Have you used a type of spark tester?
3) What is the condition of the plug. Brown or dark brown is OK. Black or silver is NOT Ok.
*If you do not have a spark tester,
a) remove the plug, and with it connected to the wire,
b) find a portion of metal around the cylinder that you can ground it on, and then pull the rope.
c) If the plug is black, you may see spark, but you should replace the plug.
*** PLEASE NOTE ; if there is excess fuel in the cylinder or on spark plug,
it can catch fire, so be carefull to cover the hole with a heavy rag so that any fuel
cannot be exposed to spark plug durning test !!!!
Get back with me on how this issue works out.
thanks, rwvanlue
Basics to check:
1) Spark plug - brown or dark brown - OK
a) is it carbon or fuel fouled
b) is there spark
2) Muffler remove for inspection
a) exhaust screen clean or plugged
b) inspect cylinder wall/piston as the flywheel is slowly rotated
3) Check cylinder compression
Fuel starvation - 'lean fuel' condition
Basic things to check:
1) spark plug
2) spark arrestor in muffler
3) fuel lines and tank filter
4) turn adjustment needles out (counterclockwise) 1/4 to 1/2 turn
Chain Saws:
5) check impulse tube and intake boot for cracks or leaks
*if all of the above are OK and/or do not improve performance then:
Remove Carburetor
6) replace gaskets/diaphragms
a) use a spray carb cleaner to clean jets, holes, and body of carb
b) fuel pump diaphragm goes against the carb body,
then the gasket towards the outside
c) metering gasket goes against the carb body,
and the diaphragm goes towards the outside

The standard mix for most chain saws is 40:1 that's about 3-1/4 oz per gallon.
