Homelite chainsaw will not start?

Ran great when I put it away, it's three years old. I've used it lighty a dozen times. Fresh clean proper fuel mix. new spark plug. Homelite d3850b. Has spark at the plug. Sprayed fuel in the carb. NOTHING. Air gap at the magneto .002 Brake not on. Kill switch off, does have spark at the plug. Compression is good. I'm a automotive mechanic and have'nt been able to figure it out. Tony? Engine spins over freely with plug out. Plug in has compression. Has not been abused. help. thanks

Homelite Homelite D3850B Garden Tools, Chainsaws Great Three Times

Return the POS saws personally with gusto to the US Chamber of Chinese Commerce. Fit them directly into the manufacturers' CEO and CFO's bonus plans precisely where he/she sits. Rotate the POS saw 360 deg. rapidly with precision. Repeat until his/her lower digestive tract fits it like a well-oiled glove absorbing the POS chainsaw he/she sold that worked 1.5 times or until his/her latest bonus check was written. Enjoy

Take off the exhaust ( 3 long screws )on the side you will see a screen. Take it off and see if you can see any blockage, if so burn it off.

I think you may need to pull the air cleaner sponge out and
add a little fuel in the air intake....to prime it.....there is a pin
that needs fuel to float.......I always have to do this with mine
when it has not been used for a while.
Good Luck
