This Stihl GS461 concrete chainsaw passed vac/press test.
Nothing out of the ordinary.
Clean fuel & air filters, well maintained saw.
Carb settings were correct.
Correct heat plug.
The damage did occur with temps in the upper 90's f
The saw Is about 1-1/2 yrs old and sees sporadic use.
The fuel was premium with Stihl ultra mix, and looks clean considering.
I think it's been overheated, possibly from getting in a bind.
But the damage is unusual to me.
