Can you substitute motor oil for bar oil in a chainsaw?
I bought an inexpensive electric chainsaw to prune some trees in my yard. It didn’t come with any oil so I thought I could just use some motor oil. All it does is lubricate the chain, bar, and sprocket. Does anyone have some experience with this?
Not a good idea. Motor oil is too thin to do any lubrication on a chainsaw. It may keep it from burning up, but the saw wont last long.
