Cool old saw. I would like to offer two pieces of advice. First, that pick is going to accidentally poke a fuel line and leave you scratching your head as to why you are losing power in the cut. Second, there is a fast idle feature offered that you were not using so I assume you are unaware of it. Note that riser on the operator presence lever. If you squeeze the trigger then thumb that riser toward the rear of the saw, it will lock the trigger open a bit. Start the saw then squeexze and release the trigger so it can settle down to normal idle.

Hey, thanks for the advice and I love your channel! I’m honored that you watched one of my videos!
Chain is not suppose to be spinning at idle maybe clutch springs are weak just a opinion
