I pulled my MS261 C-M out of it's case this afternoon to cut up a large branch that fell some 40ft from my neighbors tree onto our driveway just narrowly missing our SUV. It tagged the rock slider leaving it with a shiner but hey, that's what sliders are for.
Much to my surprise, when I pulled it from its case it had lost most of its bar oil. Is this normal for them to leak out probably 70-80% of the tank over time? I thought I had drained the oil along with the fuel upon using it last prior to putting it away (I guess I didn't), that was some time back. I wiped it down and topped off the fuel and in five pulls she fired right up and ran like a top, as expected.
So is this normal or should I be looking for a cracked tank or faulty outlet?
