Hi all my Stihl 026 has been unused for a few months and will not run it's been hard to start when not used since if owned it as I bought it second hand but abit of fuel in the plug hole and it fires and after doing this a few times it would run fine and start like any other saw even the next day .

I tried this today and it will run until it burns the fuel put in the plug hole off then bogs down and cuts out any ideas please

Cheers

I will get one orderd bill and see if that sorts it.

It's just strange how once it started and been used it used to start day after day it's only when it's been unused for a while it plays up

Things deteriorate with age, fuel goes stale etc, clean the carb, fit a new kit, replace the fuel line and filter, she’ll be reight [emoji106]
