/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Oh oh oh I have a serious question:

Boomer neighbor gave me this chainsaw yesterday. Got it running on starter fluid and then it kept running on gas but at a high high idle. Anyway I ordered a brand new carb and fuel lines and all that good shit because $17 on Amazon is easier than fucking around with this for a whole day.

Anyway when it was running at that real high idle, it was dripping bar oil out pretty good near the base of the chain. Is this normal? I want to say it was around 50% throttle, so how much oil is supposed to be coming out of these things?

I have hear people say before that Shell gas stations in their area, the 93 Octane is always ethanol free. I have never seen that around me, but I also live near the ocean so half the gas stations sell REC 90 which is 90 octane with no ethanol.
