Excuse my lack of saw knowledge on such a basic topic- Was given a well worn Stihl MS250 from my father in law. Went to cut down some pines today and the thing isn’t oiling at all. Oil tank is full and case where oiler/sprocket and chain are cleaned of sawdust debris.
What’s my next step here? Im thinking of draining the oil reservoir and seeing if something could have clogged the oiler hole. From research it looks like it could be a worn oiler pump worm gear as well.
I know the chain is super dull so definitely possible the bar and chain were burnt up from him running it with no oil. Any help is appreciated!
