Can anyone who owns one of these or similar take a couple of photos of the right hand side of the saw with the clutch cover removed. Unfortunately when taking the saw apart I didn't see exactly how the disengaging lever spring fits exactly as if was on my blind side whilst removing the brake mechanism. I have looked at the ipl but it isn't too clear. More experience with huskies and stihl but I think its worth pursuing with this saw.

 

Many thanks to everyone who has replied so far.

In my experience, the duff coils I have had have given off a weak spark when the saw is pulled over fast and this only lasts for around half a second - enough to give you a small belt but nothing at all after this.

 

You should have a big fat white spark and not a thin small blue/yellow one!
