Lastly, in cases like this, I usually remove the clutch/drum and flywheel, remove the spark plug and try to turn the engine over with my fingers by turning the flywheel nut screwed on to the crank. Doing this proves that the issue is engine related and is not to do with screws stuck behind flywheels or clutch issues etc.

Where the engine locks can also tell what is up with the saw....typically TDC if a piece of ring or circlip is stuck in the piston crown etc.

Thanks for your advice. Much appreciated.
