Husqvarna chainsaw md. # 136 2001 doesn't oil the chain, the ports and bar are clean, it is like the pick up is clogged and when I tried to fish it out with a wire the tube popped off at the top but I never got to the pick up filter so I snapped the tube back in place. How do you access the pick up filter for the bar oil?
It is unlikley that the filter is blocked (not a common problem), but not to be ruled out. I would be looking to replace the oil pump as they are common for not working. You have to remove the clutch and drum and the oil pump is held on with a few screws. Unscrew and remove the pump assy. Once the pump is removed you will see the hole going into the oil tank, allowing the filter to be pulled and cleaned. I would recomend that you fit a new oil pump to cure the problem.
