Pressure in the tank is common, it's good to plug the fuel line with a drill bit or something to keep fuel from spraying out when working on it. Make sure the air filter is clean. Can you try tuning the carburetor? Watch a few different good rated videos on how to tune a chainsaw carb, and get the right specialty screwdriver to do it, and give that a try.
Is there any chance that bar & chain oil was put in the gas tank by accident? That will cause smoke and running issues, even for a while after rinsing the tank with gas, but it will get better.
