Have a Jonsered 2260 that has one or two hours on it. After getting it reprogrammed last year it starts and runs like a champ. Clearly does not get used much but is very well taken care of. Running Stihl platinum bar oil. Last two times I used it the bar and chain really started heating up. I have a 20" Total Jonsered bar on the saw. I was cutting a chestnut tree that came down. Chain was a new chain. Chain started turning like a brown color on the teeth and the bar got hot enough to turn the silver to black. Shut the saw down and chain went around by hand so easy it was like you could almost make it turn by blowing on it so its not like it was too tight or something was jammed in there. Had a local shop that used to sell Jonsered back when 2171 were just coming out and they said everything looked good on the oiler but that it was already adjusted to max. What am I missing? Thanks again, Glenn
