      Forget the drill. Use the pull cord. If you can not start it that way, you are not strong enough to safely operate it anyway.

      try changing the gas instead. common problem with any seasonal tools is that the gas goes stale and then it wont start

      yes you could only problem is what are you gonna do once the chainsaw starts and the drill gets ripped out of your hands… its not really safe. but if you insist just figure out which way the pull cord spins the flywheel and make your your drill is turning the same way…remember a good number to have on hand for this is 911

      Not only is it not safe it probably won’t work. First the drill may not have enough power to turn the engine and second it won’t turn it fast enough to start it. You have to spin the engine at about 250 rpm to get enough spark to start the engine. Fix the starter and do a tune up on the engine. It will work better and be safer.
