Ok fellas.. I'm an amatuer when it comes to small motors, so cut me some slack if I sound stupid.:)

I have an 029 that has been working great for what I use it for, up until this season.. For some reason, it'll start, but it wants to cut back off after a couple mins...Seems to do it more when I turn the saw on the side (like to make a horizontal cut). So you can see why this gets annoying trying to cut a cord of wood..

I've tried adjusting the carb screws, and even though the idle sounds good, it's still something going on..

Any suggestions before I drop it off at the shop to get it tuned?
 
saw needs to be pressure tested, sounds like bad seals, or you gas line is floating up
