Stihl MS 181c

Chainsaw boggs down under load,
fuel good, new spark plug, air filter
fuel filter, same problem. Any ideas
what causes this problem. When running and
you throttle up, you can tell it is not running right.
thanks

    Try running with the chain off the machine.
     
    It's possible the chain oiler isn't working fully causing the chain to get hot and actually seize..
    It's not un-common...

    I fix it, you go utube,
    the exhaust was stoped up, a little small
    screen was the problem.  Clean it, runs like
    a new saw.
