oiler adjustment, help!!

[swaggz08]

I have a craftsman 3.3ci, 54cc,20 inch b&c that is throwing alot of bar oil. I think there is an adjuster beside the spur sprocket which way would I turn it to slow the oil flow down.:

How much is it using? More than a tank of oil to a tank of gas?

Can you post a pic of the sprocket side of the saw with the cover off? There are a few different types of Craftsmans that fit your description.

Is the oil actually all making it into the bar groove or is it flowing out around the clutch too?

OK, I guess it's my turn to ask . . . . . . . What oil are you using for the bar?

The chain is well oiled. I am using Poulan bar and chain oil. I guess I shouldnt complain atleast it is oiling. The saw seems to be usinging alot of oil.

I think it oils lke a raped ape. The oil is going onto the bar and chain and also the clutch cover and oozing out the sides pretty good.
