I noticed that the bar was not getting oil. I cleaned out the oil port on the power head and the oil hole on the bar itself. Cleaned the bar guide all around . There is plenty of oil coming from the pump but little if any going to the bar itself.

Have you recently fitted a new bar and chain?
"plenty of oil coming from the pump" does that mean from the pump itself- or plenty of oil is making it to the gallery of the bar pad?

Hi Bob thanks for your help. No it’s the same bar that I have been using for years. There is plenty of oil coming out of the port when I have the side cover off and run the engine. Reinstall the bar and chain and little oil is seen while revving the engine. I cleaned the oil channel well along with the bar . I made sure the oil hole on bar is clean also. When I noticed no oil on bar I removed the cover again and it eas covered in oil ? Weird that this just happened out of thin air ?
