Chainsaw oiler overheat and pressure
Have a Troy-bilt TB4620C 20”. Was using it to cut up a tree that fell in my backyard this weekend. After about 10mins I noticed it throwing chain oil. Turned it off and sat it down. I heard something hissing like pressure. Opened the chain oil fill, the pressure relived and chain oil literally boiled and foamed out emptying the tank. This was while it was on its side. Any idea why the chain oil is overheating and creating pressure?
