[QUOTE="Teemore, post: 7018019, member: 159044"] As far as I am aware only early 038s had a second bar plate that was secured to the clutch cover. LAter saws only had a single bar plate secured to the saw casing and partially covering the oiler hole. I wonder if one of the nylon "gears" that take drive from the crank to the oiler are worn and slipping. This would be very unusual. I've pulled apart and rebuilt a few 038 Supers and the oil pumps and gears have been fine even where parts of the bottom of the saw case were worn through from use. Try another bar on the saw before you replace anything. [/QUOTE]
