Ryobi Factory Reconditioned 18" 40cc 2-Cycle Gas Powered Chain Saw #ZRRY10532 Questions & Answers
Chain saw died, no spark.
Hi, gap should be 8 thou. Try this with a new plug. Check the magnets on the flywheel. It is possible to have a faulty new magneto but not that likely. Also check that the sparkplug terminal is contacting through the high tension lead correctly. Regards Phil.

Chainsaw chain sprocket won,t turn
this seems to be a chain brake that's applied , try turning off chain brake by pulling back on hand guard till a click is felt
some folks moving up from an older saw to a more modern saw are not so familiar with chain brakes and don't understand them and how they work
Oiler mechanism to bar of ryobi 40cc 10532 18 inch
I get asked this question a lot , im gonna have to make a video on this subject someday .
but here:
1st ck your oil viscosity/SAE it should be 30 and say bar/chain oil
next dump out entire oil tank and wash out with kerosene (you'd be surprised what I seen come out)
then remove bar and chain , locate oil outlet it's in body of saw near adjustment screw , use a small can of air to blow in this port softly , use a touch more of kero to clean this all out , refill tank with proper oil !!!! and run saw (no need to put bar/chain back on yet ) might take several minutes but oil should start to flow out hole !! stop saw and reinstall bar/chain then run again .. fixed !! if no oil comes out ever your oil pump is gonna need some fixing
for a low cost oil I use filtered used motor oil cut down with a dab of kerosene

Have you checked for spark? Sounds as though your ignition module has quit.
Remove the plug, connect a jumper wire between the threaded part of the plug and the cooling fins, Switch the ignition on, take it into a dark room and pull the starter. You should see a spark at the tip of the plug. HTH
