Driving over to a friends house & saw a stihl 025 (now a 250) out with the trash.Picked it up & cleaned it off, put in a new plug. new gas & it fired up runs good & has decent compression. The oil isn't feeding into the bar. What to check first?

| | I will send you a trail cam and we can watch to see what this guy puts out next. Maybe I should send you a list of what I am looking for. It's kind of long however.....

| There's a filter on the end of the hose in the oil tank. Pull it out with a wire hook and clean it.

| [quote="lloyd in sc"](reply to post at 23:16:42 06/04/12) [/quote Turn the saw upside down. There should be a screw that adjust the amount of oil going to the bar. Turn the srew to full open. I may be wrong. The 025 may not have a oil flow adjustment, but it won't hurt to check.

| Rollie there is no oil adjustment on the 025. My MS 250 when new would turn the bar blue with steady sawing ( bar not getting enough oil). Took it back to dealer and they put a new high out put oil pump for a 025 on it. The 025 had a standard oil pump and you could get a high out put pump. Some dealers will not put a high out put on a MS 250 because of EPA rules and regs.

| The standard oil pump can easily be modified to give same flow as the hi volume unit and is not hard to do. SHould not be hard to find a how-to by googling the subject.

| The MS 250 was a new saw and under warranty. Any modification would void warranty on new saw. The new high out put oiler would not void the warranty.

| I had an oiler put in my stihl and it stopped working. I said it should have lasted longer than that. I poured a cup or so of gas in the oiler and shook it around then dumped the gas out. Did it a second time then put in bar oil and haven't had a problem since. Worked for me will it work again?????

| The first thing take bar off and see if all oil holes are open. Also take oil cap off and see how clean oil tank is . I know guys that never clean around cap before opening it and let dirt and crud in it and plug up oil intake. It could also have a bad oil pump. If you would have to replace the pump get the high out put for an 025. I bought a MS250 two years ago and it didn't put out enough oil and bar turned blue. Dealer put a new 025 high out put pump on it and I don't have problem with bar turning blue.

| Id be checking the oil pump drive gear, behind the clutch cover on it, just a little plastic gear that gets worn very easy, if not that the hose inside the oil tank may have came off, or developed a hole..Bob
