    what about the vent for the bar oil tank?? I have a 362 that will not oil for sheesh.. I've ports a bunch of times, I've pulled the pump out and checkout, and its all good.. I purchased the bigger pump from the 066 but.. It should work.. It gets a little out but never even close to as much as it needs... I am thinking the breather vent is clogged or maybe never been open..I can put some pressurized air on the cap port but I don't want to blow out the breaker vent either.. Your thoughts?

  • @Jabootie-oz1cb

    Check the rails for evenness with a square, they are likely uneven, causing the chain to sit cock eyed, causing the cut to wonder left or right. You can get the rails ground but for the cost of a small bar throw it away. In my Timber Felling days I ran 48 inch Canon Bars. In the early 80's a bar was over $200 so it was worth it to get them trued at least once, sometimes twice and kept it for a spare. .

    This is why if you ever run the blade down into the ground (cutting out a stump or roots) it always clogs the oil flow, drags the saw speed down, overheats the chain, then you see smoke and sparks coming from the chain and bar. I HATE when I have to remove the bar, clean out the soil and then have to resharpen the chain just for a few seconds of having to cut into the dirt or accidentally cutting into the ground!

    And flip the bar when you put a new chain on or the chain comes off the sprocket. . The OREGON # 13616, Stens 700-807, Tecomec1017001 or china bar groove cleaner is a must. I wipe the bar down, take the tool point, rake the groove out and then clean the oil hole. Once done, I put like 1 tablespoon of bar oil on the bottom of the bar so it can run into the chain, then take the wrench and pull the chain about 2 cycles. This helps set the chain and now your ready to adjust. You can also run the saw med-high while pointing the tip of the bar towards paper and very the oil prior to cutting.

But I'm not sure what to do regarding the chain oil. Saw one vid which said fill the tank to avoid "oxidation," but it didn't mention oxidation of what. Plus, if I fill the oil tank it's going to leak out of the chainsaw no matter how I position it. (Not sure if that's normal, or just my saw.) Anyway, very curious to hear what you think.

    I use a scraper, but I also use compressed air. I scrape and blow it from the sprocket nose towards the other end of the bar. I clean it after every use. If I accidentally stuck it in the dirt, I rinse it off with two cycle gas and blow it off with compressed air. I do the same to the chain. I will run the saw after such a cleaning to restaurateur the bar and chain with oil. I let it idle for a few minutes and the rev it up looking for oil to sling off the end of the bar and for the chain to glisten in direct sunlight. New chains I throw into an oil drain pan covered with oil, overnight. If I get the bar in the dirt I will also dress down the bar with a bar dressing stone. I want the chain to rotate on the bar like glass, because the less friction there is the more horsepower you saw will develop and the less wear and tear on the saw.

    My first chainsaw was a little poulan pro I bought from a pawnshop for $100, it ran perfect, started on two pulls and was basically brand new. The bar was burned badly though. But it was oiling fine, I didn't know enough at the time to notice right off the bat, but the dang chain was on backwards lol.
    I put a new bar and chain on er and still have her to this day, still running great. Best hundred bucks I ever spent, made 10 times what I paid for her the first year just doing small jobs, and ignited a love of chainsaws.
    I still use the poulan frequently, though mostly I use her as part of my construction business for cutting posts and beams. Keep it in the truck in case I have the chance to get free firewood!

    Every time I start my chainsaw (and let it warm up) I run the chain while holding the tip near a log or the ground to make sure I see a string of oil. If I don’t see that then the bar and chain come off and I look for the problem. Love your videos BTW.

    Good stuff Steve.
    I've only got a little saw now I'm retired, firstly a Stihl 181,now I have an Echo 310 something. C310? I keep forgetting. I've finally come to realise that if I'm pushing it hard, cutting a 70 cm trunk with a 35 cm bar, the little saw isn't going to pump enough oil while the chain's buried in the middle of the trunk, getting hot. The pump malfunctioning on the Stihl, didn't help. So the chain's running dry and suddenly I find it's still running straight, still cutting well but it's sticking in the cut. Twice at least, to my cost, the chain and bar have looked NO different, and when I've let them cool down, and checked there's oil coming through, and it's still sharp - the thing still sticks, and I've had to replace both bar and chain to get it to work again. Any ideas? What am I missing? I'm not a newcomer to saws.

    The other problem with the chain and bar was not only no oil flow but it was so dull that you would have had trouble cutting soft butter.

    I have a Stihl that the bar oil drains out while sitting...... I'm clueless.....I've tore apart and inspected..... never found anything not out of the ordinary.

    Steve and Sarah , not a bar question, but I have an older Stihl 039 , it starts fine I cut a while and the it revs high stalls out , starts right back up , cut a while again, same issue and keeps getting worse. I’ve changed gas line filter, tank vent and air filter. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thank you, love your channel.

  • @tobygathergood4990
    @tobygathergood4990 2 роки тому +2

    I use high pressure air to cleanout all the ports, (away from the bearing end of course), then I push a wire trough the ports and give the bar channel a look under bright light and a scrape if needed. I also built an ultrasonic cleaner long enough for a 36" inch bar.

  • @andrewmantle7627
    @andrewmantle7627 2 роки тому +2

    I see sawdust and dirt caked on the bar and the clamping surface of the saw. That creates a space between the bar and the oiler which limits the amount of oil that can get to the oil port on the bar. This should not be minimized. I see it ALL THE TIME.
