No oil coming from my bar/ chain

[Hog a Log Hogson]

First time stating the saw up since about 10 years ago. So dont remember much

But it runs well, apart from hard to start hot and there is no oil on the chain what so ever! Yes the oil tank is full.

Where do I start look please?

Thanks

The obvious is to clean out the bar groove and oil inlet hole . Start the saw without bar and chain . See if any oil comes out of the out let . Careful how you rev the saw , don't want the clutch spinning off if its a thread on one .  The hard to start when hot could be low compression . The 135 is not a pro saw so maybe not worth spending too much money on it .

too much indian bolswick in the oil pump?

is it your saw, or one you saw in somebodies shed and decided to claim it as they haven't used it for a while.

Christ here we are again running the saw with no bar and chain, I strongly advise you do not do that, on the over run they can, and will spin off, once away from the drum you have two shoes one spring and a spider flying through the air at speed.

Yes  clean the bar delivery holes, next you need to remove the clutch and check the oil pump gear behind, then remove the oil pick up pipe and filter and clean, has this been running with bio oil?

I did err on the side of caution regarding that Andrew . 🙂
