why won't my chainsaw run?

I have a snapper chain saw that will hit and run for about 2 seconds. Can you tell me what is wrong with it?

I own 6 chainsaws, it sounds like you have water in your fuel mixture. You may have to drain the tank into a clear container and look for a water bubble. If found then the small filter screen in the carburetor needs to be cleaned out (dissassembly required).
