As a follow-up to anyone reading this in the future, the problem was that the impulse hose that runs from the crankcase to the carburetor had become disconnected from the crankcase. As a result, when at idle, there were no "puffs" of pressure or vacuum going down this line, so no fuel was being pumped. The problem did not occur at start-up because the carb vacuum at full or half choke was enough to pull fuel all the way from the tank, even without impulse power to the fuel pump. Now the saw is at least running (and will rev fully), but does not hold a steady idle. I am thinking this is a tune-up problem and will be multiple attempts at fine carb adjustments to get it right. New diaphragms are on order; a new fuel line and impulse line as well.
I discovered this by removing the spark plug and the carburetor. Pulling the start cord while on the workbench produced plenty of vacuum at the crankcase inlet/carb outlet opening, but no vacuum could be felt at the impulse line which hooks to the top (pump) side of the carb. Replacing this line with a small syringe connected directly to the carb impulse connection and pumping by hand brought fuel to the carb. Upon disassembly sure enough, there was the impulse hose, dangling there, disconnected and doing nothing.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
