the combo jugs you guys have posted carry twice as much fuel as they do bar oil. most of my saws run out of oil almost as fast as they do fuel. am I oiling twice as much as needed?

But your oil tank (on the saw) is less capacity than your fuel tank- is it not?

FYI, my owner's manual for my MS500i lists capacities of 325 cc of bar oil and 785 cc of fuel. That is 2.41 times as much fuel as oil. So, the combican has it about right. I run a maximum bar length of 25", so I have not needed to knock out the little plastic nub that prevents maximum oil flow, so I do not use up my bar oil on a tank of fuel. If I removed the num and maxed the oil flow, I would guess the oil would pretty much be used up on a tank of fuel.
