My 064 doesn't oil for crap. Have oiler adjustment up all the way! Bar holes are clean and match up. Is there anyway to find out what is causing it? Can I dump out the oil and fill with kerosene, maybe there's gunk in there, and the kerosene will clean it up a little? Or is the pump shot. Anyway to check if the line is clogged without taking the saw apart? Any suggestions would help tremendously! Thanks

To get at the oil pump, you only have to take off the sprocket and clutch. But first check that the sprocket is engaging the oil pump worm spring and that the worm spring has been worn/broken off. If that's still good, then take off the clutch and you can see if the worm gears are good. You can remove the oil pump, and check the tube from the oil pump to the bar. Check that the oil pump gear is good and still spins easily. Then pull the oil tank feedline out and clean that.
ok thanks! I'll try that
