I purchased a new Huskqvarna 440 saw a few months ago. I wanted to get another 350 but they didn't sell them at Lowes and the 440 is a bit lighter. Anyway, when I used it yesterday, it was having a hard time getting going. Cut off right away, and had to choke it again. And again...etc. It did get going, but cut out a few times when idling. As long as I gave it gas it was fine. It's under warranty, but I have a few jobs I'd like to get done in the next few days and would rather not be without it. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
 
Weird... saw this post earlier, and responded. Now all of the replies are gone!

edit: appears this is a duplicate thread.
