McCulloch 3214 oil pump gear

[DougMN]

I have a McCulloch 3214, it does not oil the bar. The oil pump gear just spins on the crankshaft, can't see anything to make it spin with the crankshaft. Was this gear a press fit? Thanks.

It has been a while since I was in one, but I believe the gear is held to the shaft by the clutch. See if you can tell that the clutch clamps it in place when you tighten it down.

Should be a compression spring (part 11 in the pic).

Yup. [emoji6]

I see I missed the flywheel in my ‘puter screen shot’. [emoji848]
