How to Identify and Fix Common Gardening Problems ?

We provide a variety of viewpoints on how to identify and fix common gardening problems. Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced gardeners :

Missing oil caps can cause your PCV system to pull in air from the breather cap and into your engine`s intake system, ultimately resulting in a vacuum leak. These leaks can be engine killers, as they increase engine temperatures dramatically.
Without lubricant, the speed at which the chain moves over the chainsaw bar can cause some serious friction. A slowed-down chain and excessive fuel burning mean there`s a lot of friction between your bar and chain, which means a lot of heat is being produced that could do major damage to your saw.
Does the pole saw use oil? Yes, bar and chain oil is required to properly lubricate the cutting system.
We`ve done it at the shop! TOM: And, if you actually drive around with the cap off on those cars, you easily could lose enough oil to damage the engine. You can lose half of your oil that way in a matter of hours.
Oil cap size varies between models of each make, and can even be different among the same models made at different times.
Why use oil? You want lubrication of the actual chain against the bar. You don`t want to chain to burn – which is what might happen if there`s too much friction. Without oil, it causes frictional force on the motor in the chainsaw as well.
The chain saw should be oiled before each cut. Manual Oiling System: Lubricate the saw chain by pressing the bulb on the oil reservoir cap twice before making each cut.
Pro Tip: Lubricate the sliding extendable poles of your tree trimmer as well as the pruner shears, lever arm, and blade with WD-40® Specialist® Dry Lube. The long-lasting corrosion protection does not attract dirt or debris and the formula provides superior lubrication with no oily residue.
the general consensus of the guys that are using their saws day in and day out is to just use canola oil. Any oil will work, even olive oil, except for that flinging at the top sprocket.
Keeping the Ryobi Pole Saw Lubricated

You don`t need Ryobi specific oil. You can use any quality bar and chain oil to keep your pole saw running.

This can cause serious damage to the engine especially when driven hard. On a healthy engine the fumes shouldn`t escape from the filler cap, because the PCV should still be sucking them into the engine to be burnt. Air should be getting pulled in the oil filler due to the low pressure in the crankcase.
Another common site of leaking oil is the oil filler cap which covers the hole in the engine where oil is added. Pressure from the engine can put stress on the oil filler cap, causing oil to leak out, if the cap is broken, loose, or even missing.
In that case, the oil light and possibly the engine check light would come on. Damage would have been done to the crank and rod bearings and the cylinders might be scored causing a loss of performance. This could only happen if the oil level hasn`t been check like it should be every or every other gas fill up.

Dont know what type of oil to use – Toro Power Lawn Mower
ANSWER : Put straight 30 weight motor oil in it. Not 10W30 or any multi-viscosity oil. Straight 30 weight motor oil. If you’re doing a complete oil change, then you may want to use Synthetic 30 weight, which will last longer between oil changes and also make your engine last longer (but it costs more too). Best of luck to you.James

ANSWER : Your clutch drum bearing has gone bad, letting the clutch drum to move around and cut into the oiler behind it, so now it just pumps the oil out that hole. You have to get that fixed to use the saw, otherwise you’re going to cause catastrophic damage to the saw very soon.

I have a husqvarna 137 chainsaw. The problem is with the bar oil. When the saw runs oil is flowing but where the rubber corner piece which allows the oil to flow out of appears to be just dripping the oil straight out. It looks like it should fill a small reservoir behind the metal plate and the oil then moves upwards where the chains drags the oil through the oil hole on the bar which is moving outwards as in the top chain on the bar. However the chain-brake area is just getting messy with oil splattering all over and the bar not actually getting oiled. I have fitted a new metal plate to see if the corner of the original was not sealing properly but that has not helped. The bar holes are clean. Any suggestions as I can’t see what it could be?
ANSWER : It’s the rubbers. I had the same problem with my 137 and 141. The rubbers shrink over time and the oil never makes it up the channel. The replacement part is one piece and less prone to leaking than the original 2 piece design.

My husky 455 rancher is not oiling the chain properly. I have tried to clean all the oil ports on the bar and saw but it still is hardly pumping any oil to the chain. What could be the problem? How does the oiling system work?
ANSWER : The problem is very likely to be a clogged but more likely faulty internal oil pump (especially if your chainsaw is old).Hope it helps.
