A few weeks ago I was cutting some big red oak with my 051AV, was running excellent and cutting nicely. Was burying the bar on all cuts, when I finished cutting it lost power and wouldn't idle. Seemed to be very hot. Got home and let it cool, still wouldn't idle and had no power/wouldn't reach full RPM. Checked compression is 140 psi, plug was cardboard brown. Pulled carb off and apart and was nice and clean inside. Was pulling 9500 rpm and max is 10000. Has spark and is blue. Any ideas on what happened?
