This is the appeal of electric tools to people like me.

I have a gas chainsaw, only used a couple of times. I really
don't have much use for a chainsaw is what it boils down to.
So it sits in the garage for a couple/three years and now that
I need it, it won't start. As expected.

I'm thinking I'd like to take out some large shrubs this fall.
Before I do the unthinkable and purchase an electric chainsaw
which I think will just start when you plug it in, any suggestions
why the thing won't start?

Be nice. (laugh) I'll take down all suggestions and try them
before I give up on the gas chainsaw. Just planning ahead.
