Sears/Poulan Micro xxv

[pafire]

I have a Sears / Poulan Micro xxv that runs and cuts really good for a limbing saw, but the oiler some times will not keep working and the chain will bind on the bar. So I was wondering if you Guys would have a oiler in your parts bins to fit this saw.

Poulan oiler

If I recall,correctly{sometimes I don't] it's an impulse driven pump located on the right lower foward portion of the little saw.You may have gotten a little piece of saw dust caught in the check valves and it's causing the problem.I have 2 of these little rascals,1 is disgused as a Dayton,the other is a Craftsman,but both are old enough to also have manual oilers.What I did was soak the pumps in WD-40{I buy it by the gal.}and blew them out,both directions ,with air,also clean the tank.After all this,fill the oil tank with diesel fuel,start the saw ,without the bar,and let it pump for a while.Worked for me.

It could also be a broken oiler hose inside the tank, but I think that would allow oil to simply flood out whenever the saw is turned sideways or has a full oil tank. maybe a dirty/clogged oil filter, those little things are something else. but well placed for cleaning/service though, probably the most user and mechanic friendly homeowners type saw I've ever seen, besides an axe.
