The power heads oilers don't pump pressure just volume. That's why when you run your saw without a bar the oil just dribbles down the side not squirt across the shop.
First thing I've done with each of the 590's that I own is switch to Tsumura bars. You get more common chain drive numbers (72)--making it easier to find proper chains, and better oiling.....Sold the old bars on Ebay for spares to folks and it didn't even cost all that much to upgrade.
@ Dunno what I'd do with that bar on my 590! I have a couple of 461's that run 36" bars if I need some "big guns"....don't use them very much honestly, we don't have so many big trees here where I live. Bought all my saws out of Pawn Shops...don't pay a whole lot for them. The Timberwolves were really cheap, see lots of them since Home Depot sold them for so long locally....Great saws.
@@hollerwoodsman 60cc and a magnesium case, lots to like there. I've never paid more than $200 for one and that one was off Marketplace, new in the box. Bought one out of a pawnshop for $50-- guy had bought it and took it back, said it didn't run.....took it home and flushed out the old gas, new gas in, third pull she sputtered a bit, next one it fired and it's started on the second or third pull every time since....

@ThePracticalPatriot echo makes a 24inch bar that's 84 drivers (same as everyone else). I'll see if I can get the info.

@ThePracticalPatriot They are an over looked saw i think. Super easy to fox and they just work.

Why are manufacturers knowingly doing this i got a 18 inch stihl bar with a bigger hole than the 20 inch i have
@@jackmcminn2520 My guess is that smaller holes are cheaper than bigger holes.
Invaluable information @@hollerwoodsman
