I have a problem with my saw. I usually fix them my self but this one has me stumped. It was having a problem running after starting. It would run for about a second then cut out. Then i would restart it and the same thing. I took it apart and cleaned it out, took off the muffler and looked for scoring but didnt see anything, checked out the carb everything good there. Then i attempted to start it, it ran fine. I began to carver with it for about 5 minutes then set it down. I walked away from it and my cousin noticed it was smoking. I ran over to it and checked to see where it was coming from and it was coming from the muffler, dont know what it is but it cant be good!! the compression is still good and it fires up no problem its just running hot as hell. the saw is about 2 years old and all of a sudden its melting the heat guard and getting really hot. any advice wood be great.
