a quick update, got it to run longer by bottle feeding it fuel, noticed an awful sound coming from the clutch, the crankshaft has about a 1/4 inch of slop radial in it, it didnt run long enough to give enough time for the handles to heat up, but at a mininum it needs a bearing, possibly even a case half.

I marked the saw as sold, I need to dig in deeper into this saw and figure out everything thats going on with it, the last thing I want is to sell it and there be more suprises, later this week I will have the local saw shop pull the flywheel and the clutch, I will report back with pics and be able to update this thread.
