Hey my chainsaw once just cut out while working, so i got a new spark plug, it then ran again, done an hours work then it cut out again. The new spark plug still sparks.....i cleaned out the carb like in your other videos, i tried putting fuel in the spark plug hole to see if it will start. nothing is happening...whats going on??? everything seems to be working but just won't start??

@tomtubeboob check the coil to see if it got loose

posted this on another of your videos = should have posted it here - since the Carbs on these 180 can be an issue - how about a video on how to replace the carb. can save us money and since most shops are WAY backed up... Thanks for great video's

@donyboy73 -- I finally found the courage to adjust my chainsaw's carburetor, as you suggested. The carburetor's settings needed substantial adjustment. Also, I learned that I should operate the saw with the choke more open. Now the saw starts easily (no need for starter fluid). Once again, MANY thanks !!!

Please do a video about the MS180c choke and throttle linkage.

Thanks for the reply - I Know it will be a great help to lots of us "Shade tree Mechs"  Just hate spending the money and all the time it takes...

BTW - what are your thoughts on Walbro wt-215 vs stock Stihl carb?

@KevinByrne2 sometimes turning out the L screw 1/8" of a turn can make easier starting
