I have a new Husky 450 chainsaw that runs very well for abour two hours then it acts like the fuel tank gets vapor locked and it stalls. It will start right up but then stall again when the throttle is opened up. If I unscrew the gas cap and then tighten it up it will run for a couple minutes before it stalls. If I let it cool down for an hour or more it will run fine.

Has anyone heard of anything like this? What is the cure. The dealer is puzzeled.
