Thanks for all the replies. I was was wondering if I was missing something as
I saw no real direct means of lubricating the chain.

    Now in the Americian Wonder books, They recommend plugging the oil filter
so as not to starve the #1rod bearing of oil.
    
    So it looks like if you plug the filter you get no oil to the chain
assembly, and if you leave the "almost worthless" filter in the line you risk
starving the rod bearing.

    Kinda like a no win situation.

Thanks
Adam
