Husqvarna won't start when hot

[billy_wizz]

Have a husqvarna 357xp that starts to bog down and stall when hot then won't start till its cooled down any ideas where to start looking?

Also anyone know of a good chainsaw/ husqvarna service in Leicestershire area?

Sounds like it has had a partial seize and is now low on compression. Once it gets hot, the compression lowers further to the point it wont run!

When warm, if not start on first try, then it's probably fuel issue, and if starts after few tries then check spark plugs electrical

Just pop the exhaust off and take a look at the piston through the exhaust port. Any vertical scoring and it is rebuild time.

Had the same problem with a lawn mower. The insulation was breaking down on the coil when hot so very weak spark. Changed the coil and starts first time now hot or cold.
