So is this still a 1980 model? And is I most likely that the oil pick up tube was the problem being disconnected I took the pump out and gave it a clean and it looks to be in good condition the worm and cam looks new with no wear or chips in the threads, it's a Verry simple pump and doesn't look like much could go wrong besides wearing and two O rings. I found this service manual online which I will post up for reference. Even if for some reason the Automatic oiler still doesn't work I should be able to just press the manual oil button every so often as it should now pick the oil up from the bottom of the sump. This is really a beast of a chainsaw and I love the fact that you can increase the bar size up from 16" to 24" not sure if there's bigger but the 58cc engine and the weight behind it allows for effortless cutting on the biggest stumps.
