General Product Question
Excessive oil under chain cover/bar cover.very little coming off bar when held in front of cardboard than normal.
replaced: (All From Your Service Center)
chain plate
hose from oiler to bar
hose into oiler to tank
cleaned complete chain saw
new chain
semi new bar ( about 30 cuts with it), Now New Bar.waste of
$40.00
oil makes it to hole were the bar is but from there is doesnt seem to make it into the bar, or at least not much of it.
seems from my perspective it is seeping between hose and bar or chain not taking up the bar.could it be a defective bar.
all chains and bar are from authorized center. also use lowe smoke oil, and husq. bar oil.
if you could please call me @ 813-***-xxxx / if no answer email: removed email address
now im Frustrated added new bar, and still does the same crap.
how much pressure is the oiler suppose to produce to force the oil into the bar hole.without bar running it seeps out steady.
Thanks, Brad

Thank you for contacting the AnswerARMY.
It is upsetting that you have experienced this issue.
I would first suggest that you take the unit to your local authorized Husqvarna service center, ask them to inspect the saw for proper oiling.
The oiler is adjustable for the quantity of output on the 455 chain saws, also your dealer can check the out put similarly to what you have done and test the tank vent system.

sorry this answer is not acceptable. my service center, has lack of service knowledge. im not an expert but im very mechanically incline have been a certified brake mechanic for many years.i have adjusted the oiler and if i increase it it jus put more oil all everywhere but were it needs to be.it i lessen it it just put less every other than it needs to be.i will not take my unit to the service and i will not driver an hr and 15 mins to the next one. i would expect a experianced person from your site to be able to assist me.that tank is clean verified that. the air vent is not blocked also verified that as well.new lines in and out eliminates that. the gear for the oiler is in good condition, the plastic gear to turn the oiler gear is fine, not damaged.last item is the oiler and if it works im fine. if it doesnt i wasted more money than i want. and will take the junk saw to the trash compactor. and buy another brand that works and im able to service my self without clueless techs. my poulan wasnt the best saw but it so far has out ran this $400.00 junk.and was 1/3 of the price.even though yall make those as well.seems no one makes quality stuff any more, either junk, or pure junk.
i have a good idea for this solution recall your oiler system its junk. from what i have seen 4 hours of searching all over the net.
thanks neway, for basically the same answer as the service center.
