Dolkita 7900 "Plastic Oiler Control Bolt"- what's the fix?

[EchoShindaiwaMakitaDolmar]

Is there an OEM or aftermarket replacement for the plastic oiler control bolt on Dolkita 7900 saws? TYIA

 

[huskihl]

Replace it with a rebuild kit for $17 once every 500 hours or so

Don't worry about it!
Overly exaggerated failure point, it is not an issue on these saws.
Neither is stock oil flow, I run 36" with no issues.

A Dolmar 7900 can oil a 36 inch bar?

With a new control bolt, yes

I never changed any components on my saws oil pumps other than the early leaky pressure line.

Use thinner oil and You get more flow!
Enlarge the ridiculously tiny oiler hole in the bar and You get less flow resistance!
Utilize a sharp self feeding chain and You'll need much less oil than You think to begin with.

Simple enough, but I admit - WTF do I know!

Do as You see fit and what works for Your application!

No!
Crap saws, stay away from them and get a Stihl/Husqvarna/Echo!

You could be right. You could have my MM ported 7900 for the ridiculously low price of $2000. Bars and chains Extra.

So if you already have a 7900 was your above question rhetorical or are you just trolling?

Lol!
Are You high?
Because Your pricing sure is!
To me no saw is worth 2k$, neither stock nor souped up.

Happy new Year!

I read years ago the oiler on a 7900 was a weak point. 32 inch bar was max it could oil. Mine was made in 2009.
