We'll look at a Husqvarna 550xp chainsaw with bar oiling issues but this video covers many common oiling problems that you can check on your saw. We will also look at a new tool I picked up. #smallenginerepair

Good video Scott! Loved when you were explaning the tool to your workmate... I think you should wait until your 5th or 6th beer to narrate a video sometime. That would be interisting! - Steve

That’s the fanciest greasy shop rag yet. Embroidered on one end and frilly on the other end. Lol. Oh and nice new tool!

Great video, always bringing up pointers like the kill switch. Hopefully customer will take better care of his saw. Thanks for showing the new tool.

I started carrying a small disposable paint brush, to sweep all the sawdust away from the fuel and oil caps. Helps me keep from knocking debris into the tanks during filling .

I like the part with your left hand on the kill switch. I had that happen to me once. Never again! I remove the spark plug and move the boot away from the plug hole!
@TheGreasyShopRag5 ай бұрын
I've found the plug has to stay in or you'll have to put your thumb over the hole so there is enough compression for the impact to hammer.

Excessive "fines" in saw chips can be indicative of dull cutters or high depth gauges. Its a higher level saw, right? Probably has an ajustable oil rate screw in the bottom; not that it would matter if the feed tube is clogged. Neat new tool!
@TheGreasyShopRag5 ай бұрын
I felt weird talking about it because I know there are dudes out there that actually know the proper use of it. Beats using a punch and hammer.

When I watch a video I don't really care to be strung along till the end for a special segment. I know thats how they get you to watch the whole video but I'm not about that. Would that tool "review" have been ok in the middle of the video or do you think it would have distracted from the actual content? Thanks.

I was listening to this on way home from work. If I’m working on a saw, would you always dump it out to inspect?

Not always. Sometimes a nice clean golden bar oil and a strong flashlight allow inspection to the bottom of the tank.
