Nice video. Chainsaws don't leak, they mark their territory. 🙂

Very good job of addressing the different problem areas. Unless there is a lot of chip build up I stop running the chain. Less residual. I also crack the cap then tighten.

Thanks Steve! Yep, keep it clean, crack the cap and you’re good to go :)

That last one... That was clever. I have struggled with this on a couple of my saws, so maybe this is the reason. Just overpressure in the tank squeezing oil out. Cool deal. Thank you for that advice.

Good vid Tom, I usually recommend draining the oil when not used for extended periods and cracking the cap as you said.

Spot on Kenny, me too. If it’s not going to be used for a month I’d suggest tipping it out, but less than that it’s a fiddly mess and not worth it.

Good info Tom

Since 1984 and a new 024, I always thought that the bigger the puddle the better. Figured it was why saw cases didn't have holes in their bottoms.

The crankcase is constantly getting oil coming into it. Where does the excess oil not sticking to the parts go? What keeps it from building up inside?

Out the muffler! Either burnt or unburnt depending on tube and load

The old 028 Wood Boss that i inherited from my grandpa leaks like, well, like my grandpa probably did. I just figured the old Stihls marked their territory like old Harleys were known to do. My new 661 Magnum doesn't leak at all, yet. It goes through gas and oil like it's got holes in the tanks, but that just because it's such a thirsty beast. I find that if I lay the saws on their side, they don't leak nearly as much.

Interesting! Glad it worked :)

Bar Oils, using incorrect or a replacement oil that may be cheaper cause a leak if oil is to thin?😊

Hmm using a thinner oil shouldn’t cause it to leak no! You’ll pump more of it though :)
