If its like a husky oil aduster ,its part of the pump like a tiny cam ,,not sure if its a repairable ,,genuine new pump isnt expensive

theres an open port on the bottom of the engine casing with a reachable screw to adjust oil flowrate to the bar.its leaking at this screw.i store my saws inside my house so oil leaks are a no no.fell out of love with my 346 for this reason.it was an expensive repair as well

I've looked through a few spares suppliers for non genuines and theres non instock ,,thought L&S small engineering would have one but they haven't ,,can only suggest pulling it apart to get to the pump ,,it might not be the screw ,,it could be the pick up pipe that weeping round the housing and dripping of the screw

I got a leak on the exact same saw, just thought it was the cap leaking but now you got me thinking, fantastic saw though, hasn't missed a beat in 9 years
