So my 030av wouldn’t run right. After months of phone calls I was ably to track down a rebuild for the tillotson carb (I’m in the mountains, amazon doesn’t come here) rebuilt and ran great for one tank. Now I’ve got no spark. I think it’s this things fault but I’m not sure what the hell this thing is. I was thinking condensor but I thought those only had two leads, and I can’t figure out how the spark plug lead would be on a condensor when it belongs on the coil. But this wasn’t behind my flywheel so how could it be a coil? It was installed incredibly inexpertly by the previous owner I’m assuming, Imagine a crimp connectior with a piece of speaker wire twisted on the terminal the other side of said speaker wire twisted onto that little nub of wire wrapped in electrical tape and then that other littler nub of wire went absolutely nowhere. I’m still scratching my head as to how the saw ever ran at all anyway here’s a picture of the thing, if anybody knows what I’m dealing with I would sure appreciate knowing as well. Thank you in advance.IMG_3BD3B096-D41B-4D7F-8A59-F68501FDEAFE.jpegIMG_1283.jpeg

looks like a well and truly bodged kill wire, or short wire, ie it grounds out the coil and stops spark, ie its connected to the off switch.

look at the ipl for what is there on your saw, page 12/13

attached ipl for you to help.
