I HAVE A 345 45CC HUSQVARNA CHAINSAW THAT GOT STUCK IN A LARGE OAK TREE. THE BAR GOT STUCK. HAD TO TAKE ENGINE OFF BAR. I NOTICED ONE BAR BOLT MISSING. LOOKS LIKE IT DIDN'T BREAK. THE HOLE WHERE BOLT GOES DOESN'T SEEM TO HAVE THREADS. HOW DO I REPLACE BOLT? ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATED. THANKS===CAMBRE

Ok. The bar bolts on those have a square base which sits in a metal channel inside the oil tank. Your bolt has gotten loose of that channel and fallen in to that oil tank. You need to reach in the tank with needle nose pliers and manoeuvre the bolt had back in the hole. It's a pain. Bad news is that once these lots come out they often want to keep doing it, but you can counter that by taking the bolt out and burring up the square end to make it grab the metal channel. Good luck.
