Husqvarna 540xp problem

[Arblife]

I've have my 540 for about 1 year now and it's starting to struggle to start once warm. I've heard it's the auto tune but the manual says nothing other than start and cut big logs for 3-5 mins. Any tips/though would be helpful.

Just out of interest have you tried resetting the A/T ? I had a problem with mine and it turned out to be a fuel valve ( electronic I think ) that was replaced by my dealer for free .

Just wondered if you come from Texas ? Your post fills about 3 screens !

Cut cookies or rings flat out with out letting off the throttle in between cuts and it should retune and settle down.

It may be worth getting the saw plugged in to the PC interface and see what it tells you!

does this have to be done via a dealer?

The plugging in does ( unless you have the software ) but re setting the A/T your self can be donre as above buy cutting the full length of the bar for 3-5 mins as per the book .

Thanks MattyF, I will give this a try tomorrow. Its so annoying when the saw does this. Plenty of big logs at the yard

OK thanks....... I wonder if I can find the software online ... and I am going to try the reset tomorrow..... ive also heard that once started every day run full throttle for about 30 seconds and that kind of sets it up ???
