I'd still take that over soppy wet. Hybrid is probably still a bit rich at that tune. The ones I've tuned wanted over 15k to be a crisp tune.
Ya I throwed the wheel on it Mike and its sittin 101/117/78.5. What u think ?

I bet she revs out real quick with those numbers.
Its already super quick on the throttle but since i was dyeing the tank/handle black and had it apart I worked on enlarging the venturi in carb and polished throats on both sides also

If too much oil collects in the crank you could blow a seal , sounds odd but the excess has to go somewhere .
A bit of slobber is normal , I'm talking when it's soaking the engine like a Harley blowing oil out the vent tube !

I've not seen much in the crank case on any saw,everything has a nice coat on it though.

You can always justify another saw.

i had stuff slobber the exhaust running 50:1 or 40:1 no matter how it is tuned i got a 223l husqvarna and they were notorious for doing.
my lawnboy slobbers a little with any mix but the carburetor is fixed anyway.
My 323L Husqvarna trimmer pukes oil out the exhaust all the time. It doesn't seem to matter the oil used or the tune.
