Oil tube
I'm having an issue with the chain oil pick-up tube on my 170 chainsaw. I wanted to replace it because it was leaking , but the new one seems to kink and stop the flow of oil when inserted into the tank. Does anyone know if the filter end is supposed to sit in the lower tank section or push up into the larger part of the tank. Also , if you pop the pump end of the tube off when the tube is installed and the tank is full of oil, should oil run out of the tube to indicate the line is clear and installed correctly? At present , no oil runs out of the open tube end??? Thanks
