Crank seals are leaking when it gets hot, causing it to lean out and bog.  Hopefully the piston and cylinder aren't damaged yet.  Leaning out under load like that can and will cause damage...
That's an "advanced issue".  Lol

Eh......maybe so.

But..........it's an issue that is often ignored.  I've seen folks put a new P/C on a saw that "was straight gassed" (what many folks MUST be the cause of a roached p/c), only to have the new p/c burn up not long afterwards as they didn't cure the real cause of the original failure (air leak, too lean carburetor adjustment, dull chain, or some combination of those).
