the saw is 20 years old? so the crank seals are 20 years old, they get hard, I would replace them for sh*ts and grins. I vote crank seals.

Another problem area just might be the jug to crankcase seal.Was there an actual gasket there or was it sealed with the silicon stuff that you used?
If an actual gasket was used,that silicon stuff just might be the culprit.
Good luck.Have fun.Be safe.

Most 2 cycle running problems are usually always a vacuum problem. Cracked gas line or a pin hole bad crank seals. The last couple of years ITs been mostly carburetor problems from the alcohol in the gas. I have been lucky that the cheep Chinese carbs have so far worked good for me. I only had one that wouldent idle just right. After adjusting it it now is ok. A lot of bad coils lately also
