My stihl 031AV chainsaw bogs down when pulling trottle

New rings,new spark plug and points are gapped at .016

  • Anonymous Dec 07, 2012

    I put another carburetor on the saw and it does the same thing, it will start up and run but when I give it gas it bogs down.It idles but has a kick or jolt in it when idling.Also the fuel line to the gas tank seems checked out okay.

    I put an electronic chip in it and removed the points. It would then rev up but not idle. then I blocked carb inlet and muffler inlet and put air test through spark plug opening. I had an air leak at oil seal on clutch side. I replaced oil seal and now the saw runs perfect.

Ive had numerous similar faults with both stihl and husqvarna saws. all turned out to be leaking fuel tank vents. Im not sure if this model has a vented tank or not but it might be worth checking. Sounds like a fuel/air issue.

Stihl chainsaw ms441c put new coil on still no spark flywheel ok key way in place checked ground wires ok

According to Stihl's engine service manuals, when the engine has no spark or a dramatic, sudden loss in power, the problem could lie in the ignition system. The ignition system ignites the fuel in the engine for proper combustion. When the spark isn't firing correctly, an influx of gas can bog the engine down or cause it to not start at all. Since you are dealing with potentially lethal high voltage, extreme caution is advised and safety gear should be worn at all times.
first Slide the rubber spark plug connector off of the spark plug. On most Stihl's this can be accessed from the top of the engine, underneath the chain brake handle. Unscrew the air filter cover and remove it, if you can't see it on top of the engine
then Insert the socket wrench onto the spark plug and remove it from the engine. Discard the old spark plug and replace it with a new, identical spark plug, which will be recommended in your operator's manual. Make sure the spark plug is gapped according to your manual's specifications or else the engine won't start.
after that Turn the ignition switch to the "On" position. Insert the spark plug into the rubber connector. Make sure the chain brake is disengaged by pulling back on the black chain brake handle, which runs atop the saw's engine.
Hold the rubber plug and spark plug, with gloved hands, about 1 to 2 centimeters from a metal point on the engine block. Wipe any flammable gas or oil from the metal spot on the engine with the rag. Tug on the starter cord and look for a blue spark across the "hex" part of the spark plug,Check to be sure the wires leading to the "On-Off" switch aren't tangled or touching a metal point on the engine if there is no spark, Replace any wires if they are damaged or corroded

Weak spark hard start stihl 021

Check the pole gap on the ignition module to the flywheel magnets. Use a thin business card for a gauge. If it has the correct gap and you have tried a new spark plug, then the module itself is likely failing. Hope this helps!
