Randall...... tried it after reinstalling plug... same symptoms ... still
won't pull out more than about 6"... it's not a 'hard' stop, it's really
like it's hitting up against compression If I wait a couple of seconds and
continue pulling it will go another 6" really strange
Arvid.... no manual compression release on this saw... it might do it
internally but it's not mentioned in the manual...

Just a thought, did you try it again with the plug back in after spinning it
with the plug out? Sometimes oil or fuel can
accumulate and cause a hydrolock condition.
