Poulan Woodshark

[fayjim2]

Is there a adjustment for chainoil. My echo has a screw to adjust but I haven,t found anything on the Poulan. Is there really a weight for chainoil with temp changes?

That should something like Poulan 1950 and no there is no chain oil adjustment.

Oiler is driven by the crankshaft. if it's running ,it's oiling.

Yes, there are two different bar oils, a summer heavier viscosity oil and winter lighter viscosity oil. Using the summer oil in temps below 40 degrees does not properly lubricate the bar and chain and the saw will even stall out if the air temp is too low.

I can,t seem to find chainoil with the viscosisity labeledor anything about winter summer.It also won,t revup, what kind of screw heads are on those carb adjustments There is no plastic caps. Very small screw with no slot

Being as old as the Woodshark would be I would think you are looking 21 spline adjustment screws.

 

[fayjim2]

What is a 21 spline screw, is it a socket or ???

 

[StarTech]

It is one of the many EPA required tools to adjust carburetors. Until they yet another version.

This why an image of the current mixture would needed to be sure exactly which is being used in your case.

The knuckleheads at the Big Box stores have no idea as to the different types of bar oil. You’ll have to go to a chain saw shop dealer to find the two types. Might be worth your time and money to find one that has both types and ask if they would do a quick adjustment on your saw for you. The good guys will do this for little to nothing if you buy the oil from them.

Boy your are giving them more credit than I do. Especially when one runs around for over 20 minutes looking a metric adjustable wrench.
