The Squire of Gothos
1. The dueling pistol can't possibly work against Trelane, i.e. hurt Trelane, but it does work, i.e. foils Trelane, when Kirk shoots the mirror.
2. The knowledgable Starfleet crew member might be Kirk as he figures out Trelane has a machine in the mirror based on Trelane's historical mistakes and other clues, but it could be someone or something else in the episode. Reaching here because I like my #1 answer.

That's a great guess. But no.
Third clue: might be time to step on the gas.

"A PIECE OF THE ACTION"?
The only episode where you can step on the gas literally. However, was that literal?
Great guess. Not the answer.
Wow. There are some top-notch guessers in here. I'm tempted to award the prize to this one.
But no.
Next clue: both Spock and Scotty sit in the big chair, one figuratively.
No. Scotty is never in command in TDM. Were you thinking of him sitting in Auxiliary Control on the Constellation?
You said "one figuratively", didn't you? I thought that one was Scotty.
The Cloud Minders
Weapons aren't usually tools but the Mortae used as weapons by the Disruptors are also digging implements.
Spock is really forward about Vulcan biology in this episode. Surprisingly so.
This episode is about countering the effects of Zenite gas, but also, because of Stratos, people are walking in the clouds ie, "stepping on the gas."
Scotty is in command while Spock and Kirk are on the planet but we never see him on the bridge. Spock is in command when Kirk is playing Troglyte with Plasus.

Well, the clues sort of fit, but only "sort of"...
It might also be The Galileo Seven:
1. Their superior weapons were demonstrated to the planet brutes but they were not impressed, so, it really didn't work. Later, Scotty drained the phasers to give fuel to the shuttlecraft, so here, the phaser worked.
2. Spock thought the weapon demonstration would work based on his knowledge of how primitive cultures should respond. He was wrong, though.
3. They flew into a big gas cloud nebula, got lost and crash landed on a foggy (another gassy thread) planet. Spock also ignited the fuel in orbit making a big gassy flare. That's 3 gas threads...
4. Scotty sat in the captain's chair, but Spock was in command of the shuttle, so in affect, was sitting in his own "big chair".

Still a bit strained. When you get the right one, all the clues will fit like a glove...
Tough crowd.
Next clue. The plot was watered down.
