Idle is set too low already where  it wont stay running on a cold start. Shop set it at 1600 when its supposed be at 1800 for idle speed.

It's supposed to be 2700 - the L side likely is set way too rich on your saw!

2700rpm is too fast for most of these with the the ones without conventional clutch spring. The ones with U shaped plate springs will get hot and loose shape if run on idle much (like when clearing, piling brush etc).
As low as possible with a steady run and good performance is alway's best!
Chainsaw nut!
