I have a few saws that seem to be idling fine, but the blade still spins at idle. What are some of the reasons/fixes for this? Thanks!
Chain...not blade.[emoji16]I have a few saws that seem to be idling fine, but the blade still spins at idle. What are some of the reasons/fixes for this? Thanks!
I've seen a gummed up sprocket bearing and a rusted sprocket bearing cause your condition. Have you cleaned and greased the sprocket bearing ?Ok thanks, happysaws.

Check for weak or broken clutch springs even worn or elongated holes.
Worn, defective or just plain old crudded up clutch drum bearings.
As previously mentioned, carb problems & air leaks could also be a possibility.
If you think you got a blade you got bigger problems than your CHAIN spinning at low speed !!!!!!!! DUH

The correct term is bar and chain. Not blade.
