Lost spark at spark plug. Switch is ok. How do I test coil?
For model number 240
Hi John,
Thank you for your question. To test the coil, pull the start rope on the chainsaw and watch the end of the plug as you do. If you observe a spark jumping between the tips of the spark plug gap, it means the chainsaw coil is good. If there is no spark, it means the chainsaw coil will need to be replaced. We hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

chainsaw husqvarna 240
For model number 240
Hello Maurice, thank you for your inquiry. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend checking the fuel filter. If it is fine, then the issue is most probably with the spark plug, part number PS8996057. It produces the spark that ignites the fuel in the engine. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

240 Husqvarna saw stopped suddenly. Have no spark. Stop switch is fine.
For model number 240
Hi John,
Thank you for your question. There may be an issue with the ignition module. To test the coil, pull the start rope on the chainsaw and watch the end of the plug as you do. If you observe a spark jumping between the tips of the spark plug gap, it means the chainsaw coil is good. If there is no spark, it means the chainsaw coil will need to be replaced. We hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

The metal band that tightens on the "flywheel" had broken.
I looked at just buying the metal band for about $5. But I noted it would have required having to compress a spring in a very small area. Since my saw is over 5 years old I figured I might as well get the whole chain brake assembly which includes the cover, and all the guts that are in that cover. This included the metal band and the s

pring already installed. I think my time is worth something and not being frustrated with getting all the parts back in place was worth the extra $15. As far as the actual work this is how it went. Remove two large nuts on side of saw. Remove damaged cover. Put on new cover. Tighten 2 nuts. Adjust tension of chain. Only trick would be to check that the chain brake lever is not in the forward position (where it would stop the chain from turning). It should be in the back position (towards the top handle) to put back on the cover. Love this saw by the way for cutting small trees for firewood.
