I have an 026 that leaks bar lube all over when it sits for a while. Is there a fix for this.
Say what. I'm stting here thinking just how a bar could suck oil out of a tank. Care to explain that one. Not funning with ya for my 026 leaks like a huzzy but it has a Stihl bar on it....bwalker said:Does it have a Stihl bar on it?
Some aftermarket bars will cause siphoning of the bar oil on Stihl saws.
Stihl bars have a little Dam(for lack of a better word) behind the oiler hole to keep oil from runing down to the heel of the bar.Say what.

McCartman said:All of these threads about the 026/260 leaking bar oil makes me glad I opted for the Pro version. It was more expensive, and the decompression valve really isn't needed on a saw like this, but it sounds like the better oiler is worth the higher cost.
