Saw is a newly built Farmertec 365. Bar is a like new 20” Oregon or Windsor robbed from my 61 Rancher.
Chain came with the Rancher from a barn clean out.
After some runtime I noticed the slack.
Adjusted that out.
Then I couldn’t roll it all the way ‘round. WTH !!
So added enuff slack to get it moving. Marked the chain at max slack.
Pulled off the chain and examined each and every preset and driver.
Found that the chain has 58 drivers of Stihl chain.
With 14 drivers of IDK added to it to make 72.
Maybe the Stihl part has more wear on the pins/rivets making the added length produce the tight/loose condition.

There is no visible run out on the new rim drive drum or rim. Bar sprocket, ditto.
