    Proper bar oil has stuff added to it that makes it stick to the chain motor oil don't. As the oiler is on the top of the bar light oil mostly gets flung off the chain at the tip. You can get away with it on a short bar but not a big one. Burnt bar and buggered chain make proper oil seem cheap.

    At $3.50 a litre, I’m happy to stick with proper bar oil.
