If you look closely at the photos that I have attached you can see the concept of how the oil flows. The main reason I did this mod was because my old bat was not oiling properly. However with this mod I am also able to use the cheap bar and chain from lowes. It is a little harder to get the bar and chain on and you have to remove the husq bar and chain tensioner when using thr after market one but honestly it is well worth it for the price and how well it cuts. Anyways back to the point. The oil flows out of the top holes and oils the top. Now the center is cut out because there is an elevated portion to prevent the bar from shifting while cutting so the oil will not flow through the center. Instead I routed the oil around the elevated portion down to the bottom oil chamber and the cut a hole at the bottom to allow oil to escape and oil the bottom. This works flawlessly and you do not run out of oil quick.I have to add oil after every other gas refill. I use burned motor oil which may be a little thicker but still works great. Let me know if you need a templete to print and cut. This is for a 435 xp incase you are wondering.
