Just an easy question to answer. What saw are these pictures of. My saw is a Husqvarna 285CD and the crankcase is different see photo. Seth8837

Thanks a million. I have exposed the track on the circuit board. I did not proceed as I saw no way of removing the capacitor. I have now seen your photos and description and it all seems plain sailing. See progress so far. Interesting if you remove the woodruff key you can spin the shaft easily...

I like this solution. What value capacitor do you use and how do you remove the resin and the old capacitor. Seth8837

I had the same difficulty. I made a plate with 4 holes matching the 4 screws in the flywheel. In the centre I drilled and tapped a hole and screwed a 3/8 fine threaded bolt in. Fixing the 4 screws to the flywheel and placing a soft piece of copper or brass under the central screw and tightening...

I have the same problem with my 285CD Where can I find your solution with the capacitor. Seth1937 please help me

It is a totally Bosch setup, all original. Just stopped sparking. If I remove the woodruff key I can spin the flywheel by hand with a little lubrication. Measuring the output of the exciter coil by connecting a scope to the kill switch lead. With a good spin I get about 100 volts but no spark...

Has anyone used the Oregon chip with the existing coil and been successful. I tried to no avail.
