Spray a little starter fluid down the carburator . It is starts then is is a fuel problem. Most likely a gummed up carburator. Remove and clean .

Hi

First remove the cover,air filter and the carburator.Then remove the gas tank cap and the fuel filter from inside of gas tank,at the end of fuel line.Take off the fuel line from the hole of the gas tank(at the top),replace the fuel line,put all back together and start the engine.

SOURCE: Does the centrifical clutch on a Stihl 034 AV

I cannot find a manual for an 034 so I must make my best guess (yes, left handed thread). Most Stihl saws have inboard clutches. I am going to reply as though that is true. The drive sprocket does not require (if inboard clutch) clutch removal. It must be removed to access the actual clutch. I reply as though you want to actually remove the clutch itself.

Do this first:

The C-clips tend to fly when being removed. Please wear eye protection and exercise care.

1. Check the IPL for your saw to see if any special tools are needed. Poulan (Craftsman, Jonsered, Husky) clutch removal tool part number 530031112 if needed, is under $5 from many sources (look at the visible area between the weights if 2 small round sockets are visible you need the tool).
2. There are metal piston stops available, when square (almost never) with the piston top these work well, if not square they have been known to punch through the piston. I suggest a length of nylon rope (nothing left behind) be used instead of the piston stop (retain 6" ± so you can remove it). Make sure the piston is near the top of the cylinder before feeding the cord or it can fall through the exhaust port and damage the piston as it rises.
3. Everyone I have ever removed had a left handed thread (tighten it to loosen it).
