Husqvarna 298, No Oil Output

[Duke Thieroff]

Hey guys!

Haven't really worked much on these 298s before but had a guy pop in and ask me to take a look at his for him.

I've got a soft spot for these models so I took it in.

Are there any caveats with the oiler I'm not aware of?
Typical failure modes?
Anything worth noting outside of stripped worm gear/plugged/damaged oil lines?

I'll add some pics tomorrow, it's a pretty nice specimen!

Thanks!

Check with Rory I know he has some of these. He should be able to answer your questions.
