[QUOTE="jltrent, post: 1455235, member: 21075"] Don't run the chain to tight as that will cause excessive heat and is a lot harder on the roller nose and the PTO crank bearing/oil seals. Another problem I have noticed that is very hard on the bar and causes heat build up is a dull chain, keep the chain sharp. Blow the dust off good after each use including disassembling the bar to get it good. As mentioned before hold the bar over a piece of paper and run wide open and see if the oiler is leaving a good streak of oil. Don't just use any oil for the oiler, get what is recommended as it has the proper additives. If isn't under warranty and the roller in the bar is shot these are good replacements for the money. The chain and bar are good.
