Husqvarna not oiling, help?

[Chainsaw Collectors]

I have a Husqvarna 142 e-series chainsaw. Just installed the new muffler and got it running. Probably needs some carb adjusting as it doesn’t always idle right, occasionally is doggy when trying to get to full throttle, and often dies 4 seconds after chain brake is applied, runs fairly well tho. The problem is I tested the oiling by having it close to a 2x6 at full throttle for a while and no oil at all. Took bar off, cleaned it some, noticed oil you can see in pic on saw in small quantity, same problem. Any ideas?

What is the condition of the oil pump worm gear?

I’ve never messed with oiler before. How do I go about checking that?

husky bar has a small hole for oil to pass through to go directly to the rails. It clogs up on mine frequently.
Need to remove the bar and clean the bottom of the rail with a pick.

I’ll clean the bar better with a pick like that then. Thanks.

if the other problem when you apply the chain brake when it's idleling and it quits you might need a new clutch.

Cleaned bar, but didn’t even put back on, saw does not oil at all really idling without b/c.

I have it apart, I don’t really know what I’m looking at tho. Anyone see problems?

not all that familier wit hat pump but looks like the drive gear on the pump would even make contact plus your line looks like it is full of sh#t - if it was ever run with canola oil and sat for quite a while it turns into glue if not run with real oil before shelfing it- usually you can smell it- like burnt linseed oil. any play in your bearing?

The teeth that are driven by the worm gear on the clutch shaft look to mostly worn away.
A better picture with it clean would help verify that

Im assuming this is the gear you’re talking about?

Thank you for the clarification. I’ll order this since I can’t order off other websites and I might need a new clutch anyways.

If engine stalls ,your sprocket bearing is jammed,rusted probably .

Dying when engaging the brake is often a sign of an air leak.

I wonder if the OP rebuilt the carb?

 

[Tobystihl]

The bar doesn't have a oil feed hole ....

No i did not.

It could have a single hole or double on the other side, but good catch.

After looking at the bar again, OP, you're either tightening your bar nuts down way too hard, or you're missing a bar/clutch-cover plate. This could also be affecting oiling.
