SOURCE: My chainsaw, after runnig ok

it sounds like a fuel issue. on my Stihl (390 )saw I had that same problem and I found that the fuel line inside the fuel tank was kinked and split and sucking air ( not fuel ). also check to make sure your gas oil mix is correct ( start fresh when in doubt ). it also can be a idle issue ( Fast idle or Slow idle ), but since you just had it serviced - I would look at the fuel line and fuel first. please let me know what you find and if that does or does not solve your problem,, there are a few more things to check. ( also - check to see if the air filter is clean and clear ,, brush it off if dirty ).

My saw won't work when I push the trigger
What type of saw is it? Did it work before? Mine is a 'Parside' and it does not start immediately when pressing the trigger. You have to hold it in. It starts slowly and quickly pick up speed.

Erratic starting circular saw
Sounds to me like you have a bad cord. Clamp the saw to a workbench so that it can start and run safely without you having to hold it. Put tape or a wire tie around the trigger to hold it in. THEN plug it in. Then move the cord around, especially near where it enters the saw. If the saw starts and stops intermittently you have confirmed the bad cord. Good luck.

This vehicle does not use points, it has a solid state magnetic pick up to trigger ignition. Try changing the air filter. A dirty air filter can put the MAF ( mass airflow sensor) out of range.

Will start but will not stay running
The 455 was very prone to blocking the fuel tank vent, as a test, when the saw starts to die release the fuel cap, if the saw picks back up and runs normally it is a breather issue, the breather is pressed into the crankcase under the starter cover.

After turning on the saw, it will run about 10 seconds and then will trip the breaker. This happens every time .. the motor is not overheated. The saw had been working fine but this just started recently....
Is there a breaker on the saw, or do you mean the breaker in the electrical panel? Maybe you can borrow a clamp-on current meter to investigate. You might have a bad breaker. I would suspect an intermittent short, but it wouldn't be so consistent.

When i press the switch of the saw it starts then immidiately stop after few seconds
After never using for 6 months, I finall had the need to use my Ryobi saw and had the same problem. Push the switch and it would make one revolution and die. I took the blade off and the end cover oppsote end to epose the other end of the motor shaft. Applied small drop of oil to each. Continued to play with trigger and finally got the motor to get running. Held it on for several minutes. I had to do this several times in order for it to start working properly. Might ne something with breaking in the brushes. Regadless, it works now. Give it a try. Be patient.
