Stihl starting procedure:
1.). Set on full choke. Pull 2-4 times until you hear it pop.
2.). Move lever up to fast run position. Pull to start.
Not sure what your issue is. This has worked for me over the last 35+ years with 10 different models.
Maybe it’s time for:
1.) new carb or rebuild
2.) new impulse line
3.) new plug or coil
4.) clean air filter
5.) clean sawdust from around/under flywheel and coil
Fresh gas, preferably ethanol free, at over 91 octane preferred. 50:1. No more.
Run the tank and carb dry after every use.
