Why will my chainsaw only run with the choke on?

If your chainsaw only runs with the choke on, it is likely an issue with your carburetor. ... If the carburetor is plugged, the engine will be starved of fuel and will not run. However, if the engine is plugged, the choke will pull more fuel through the carburetor's idle circuit and allow it to run.
