Have you left it with fuel in the tank? the petrol will vaporise leaving the mixture too rich.
Empty the fuel tank and clean the fuel filter : hook the fuel line in the tank with a piece of wire and pull it out then either clean or preferably replace.
Take off the air filter and wash in hot soapy water, rinse and leave on a radiator to dry.
check the spark plug, clean and re-gap at 0.5mm.
Check all electrical connections are clear of corrosion and tightly fitted.
Is your fuel mix correct IE 1:25 or try husqvarnas own two stroke, remember if it has been left for a length of time it will have vapourised leaving it too rich.
Try to start the saw with the choke lever out, if it attempts to fire, put the choke in and continue pulling.
If it has not tried to fire up after 3 to 4 pulls put the choke back in before continuing to pull or you will flood the carb.
If this fails try to start the saw with the air filter removed if it starts then just warm the engine and then replace the air filter and re-start without choke as it should then be warm.
