Can anyone advise on 2-stroke engines? or is there a newsgroup dedicated to
them?


The Q is if the flywheel magneto may function perfectly when cold, but fail
when hot. I have a Stihl tool which starts and runs fine, but if it stalls
when hot refuses to start again. Fuel is OK, as is spark plug.


And you are using the correct mixture?

I know that lawn mowers go out of timing after hitting roots or stones.
Is it possible your chain saw is out of timing? No idea how it might
happen though. But that is what it sounds like.
