I have a 15-yr old Homelite chainsaw, which runs - except that the
automatic chain oiler doesn't work. Can I just run this as-is, and
squirt oil on the chain every X minutes?

Thanks,
George

Sure, as long as you don't forget to oil it. Once you do, wear will come
faster. The trick is to get the oil on the bar, not the chain.
