its normal to build up pressure in the fuel tank when its hot.
when cutting at 35c here in australia, even when the tank is almost empty, it has pressure when you open the cap on the saw.

if your milling, thats going to create even more heat.

Pressure should not be an issue in how the engine runs in your saw, if it is, then you need to check the pop off pressure on the needle and seat, as thats what works against the tank pressure, if thats not correct, then it will allow more fuel into the carb than required, and you would have a rich running scenario when it gets hot.

Get an original stihl metering lever spring, most likely fix the issue, unless the needle seat area is suspect.
