I hope everyone is having a good weekend. I was at a friends home and he picked up a Homelight Rancher 33cc. It would not accelerate. Well I pulled off the muffler and the screen was plogged. Reassembled and now it runs like new.So I checked the oiling and filled the tank. Started her up and no oil out the side. Nothing, nada, zero.I removed the muffler (again) and found the oil leaking out of the tank whear the hose goes to the connector that feeds the bar.I used air to verify that the line was clear whitch it was I could hear bubbles inside the oil tank.Can anyone tell me if this is one of their pressurized oil systems? The saw has a gas primer bulb like some of the Poulands do. As a matter of fact it resembles a Poulan except the magneto is on the top of the flywheel.The cylinder looked great. No visible signs of wear.Does this saw have a oil pump? Thanks, Ken
