Re: Husqvarna 359 Problems

SO got the saw back still no start!! I'm being told that this may be an ignition issue and the CDI may be on its way out. I'm not sure if this is a possibility but its plausible. If the ignition is strong and then gives out once the saw gets a little warm that could be the issue. I'm skeptical but I'm open to the idea. Has anyone had CDI issues similar to this? Is there a good bench check I can carry out prior to throwing money at a CDI that might be fine?
Also I told that the crank seal may be bad and the extra air is leaning out the mixture to much for the saw to run. Is this a common problem to an older saw? I'm told the time and money in rebuilding it from the crank on up is not worth the trouble. Thoughts? I'm not afraid of the job but my time is more valuable than the cost associated with a rebuild. I rather like jobs that bring old stuff back to new condition. Not to mention the money saved and one less piece of garbage on the pile is always good. But I'm about ready to call it on the whole thing and get a few bucks for it in the condition its in now and get rid of the headache. Any one have an idea where to go from here?

Thanks
