Husqvarna 394
« on: August 07, 2013, 01:42:29 pm »
Got a husky 394 on it's way to check out.  I never owned a 394 or husqvarna 395.  Only ran others.

I read alot about bad coils on the 394 and wondering is there a replacement from another model saw that will work.  I swear I read somewhere that JJ stated there was another coil that would work.   ???

Issues I was informed of on 394.

((( 394 will start and run good for about 30 minutes and then bog down and quit on me.
Will not start easily after that if at all.  Needs to cool down. )))

I'll know more when I can test it out and check spark after quitting after running and wont restart.  Also wondering about tank vent on this.

394 and 395 thats it i don't have any aftermarket listed neither i have to order one next week about 80 bucks or so. I am supposed to be getting a few 385 huskys if so the 395 is getting peddled. It looks like the 385 top ends are 20-40 bucks higher than most, but i haven't really checked much

If the saw was built after 01-01-95, Husqvarna will warranty the coil for free.

Ok Husqvarna has changed there warranty policy now, but it used to be lifetime on ignition modules. The warranty now is(this is straight from the dealer) "limited lifetime warranty on ignition coils, meaning lifetime warranty on the coil or up to 7 years after the last year that specific model was produced" So there is no longer warranty on any 394, however they will still replace the coil on your 395. I am not sure if they ever came with an unlimited coil or not, but if it came from husqvarna with the coil it has on it now and it is bad, then it is under warranty if it's bad.

All I know is I used a jonsered ? ? ? ? (would have to look it up again) in a 3120 before and retimed the flywheel. The 272 coil is used the same way in 3120.
