Our MS 391 shuts off when chain brake is applied.  Do i need to adjust the carb idle a little higher?

It shuts off at idle with the brake is engaged?  Does is also shut off at idle without the brake?  Could try opening the L screw a little but may be something more going on.

So, after careful inspection, the drum sprocket bearing was shot and the clutch was worn "blue" from overheating.  I am replacing both of these parts and hopefully it will solve the issue.  Spoke to one of my local small engine mechanics and he thought it could be the clutch.
