I can start the motor with easy start, but once that runs out the chainsaw stops and will not start again. I have set the mixture screws L&H but can’t get the chainsaw to start once warm. I can’t get it to idle long enough to make any adjustments. Al’s what is the spark plug gap supposed to be.

Try these sites for more info. external link  and external link  (use google translate for English version) I have been lucky with mine so far, only issues was with the chain adjuster occasionally which I resolved by ensuring the bar holding nut was firmly tightened after adjusting the chain. Starting has been straightforward once I got used to not having to wrench the pull starter. Haven't had to touch the idle and mixture screws. Good luck. [edit] make sure the fuel cap vent is clear

Thank you. I have found that when I pump the plastic primer bowl, there is a lot of air in the plastic fuel tube and the bowl will not pressurize. Could this be a problem?

Check for split fuel lines, air leaks etc.
