Re: Voltage but no spark on chainsaw

I tried yet another new sparkplug...and nothing. I actually pulled out the switch this time (duh) and tested continuity, and the switch IS working. Back to square one. A short somewhere? Could it be the coil not sending enough current to the spark plug? I know very little about cranking electricity--Shouldn't I get an amp reading on the multi-meter when I pull the cord?

Voltage but no spark on chainsaw

I have a Husqvarna with CD ignition. Haven't used it for about 6 months. Was working fine when I put it away. Now I'm not getting any spark with the plug I left in, nor with a new plug. I put my multi-meter on it and am getting AC voltage at the spark plug lead when I pull the cord. Don't know if this has anything to do with it, but when I check for continuity through the switch, I get a complete circuit with the switch ON and OFF. Should I be? Any suggestions on further diagnostics? Could both plugs be bad?
