Ok, without letting this turn into a "I hate flippy caps" thread...( I actually like them) I have a 261c that has been leaking bar/chain oil. I have just been laying it on its side so it won't leak and started thinking...surely someone smarter than me has figured out a solution to this little problem...so what do I do? replace the cap? clean it? is there a seal that needs to be replaced? saw is only 6 months old, but I've never cleaned the caps or anything, and since it's leaking, it's really dirty with sawdust/oil mixed. None of my other saws with flippy caps have ever leaked...
