My t540 runs well when it's cold. However it's absolutely horrible when it gets warmed up. After 10 mins in the tree it's cuts out after after I shut off and then won't start. Been sent away and nothing was wrong with it apparently. Anyone else had this problem? Its becoming a nightmare now really starting to get on my nerves

 

Thanks

Hi there I had exactly the same problem with min bought it brand new in February and use it a couple of times seem like an excellent saw, but then when I had warmed the saw up I would find it wouldn't start then tried keeping the saw ticking over while hanging on my the harness but found that when I picked it up I would go to make a cut and it would stall and then not start after pulling it over about a dozen times. I took it to the dealer and they have now had it six weeks and I am waiting for an answer as to what went wrong. I think they have replaced the auto tune carb which was the only thing I thought it could be. Luckily I still have an ms 200t but that has the common carb problem as well not sure which saw to go for now.

Got two of them now. One when they first came out and another just two months. Been working hard on them last two days cleaning big cedars. Only use Aspen though. Start well and run great.

Guess you got Monday morning saws. Be interesting to find out Huskys evaluation.

One of mine was a dog, with same symptoms as what you both have described, apparently it was the impulse pipe, though after waiting 5 weeks for this to be fixed when I got the saw back after 20 minutes it was back to its usual poor running.

 

So I took mine back and insisted on a new saw, this one has been fine.

The impulse pipe pulls off when/if you drop it on its strop and when the av spring is fully bent it wont fit back on

I never drop my saw, I always clip it short even a 660 I am very any about it as I hate hauling saws up to me or having them banging into my ankles. I work the saws hard but never bang them about.
