I have a Stihl 029 chainsaw. It runs good, has lots of power, and idles well. It can sit for several months and I choke it and pull maybe 5-6 times till it fires once, then choke off and one pull and it starts. If it sits overnight, maybe only two pulls till the first fire with the choke on.
My problem is when it is warm. After it gets warmed up, if I shut it off and try to restart very soon, like 5 minutes or less it will start right up. If longer, I can't get it to start till it cools back off for probably an hour or more. When warm I start it with no choke, like I said if very soon after shut down it fires on one pull. I've tried holding the throttle to max, I've tried choking it, partially choking it, loosening the fuel cap, nothing seems to work. It just does not want to start unless the motor is very warm or cold. Any ideas?

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
