Yeah. What kind of grease should I get? And how do I loosen the chain?

I use chain saw bar oil, it's thicker and if you put it on when you get home from a ride then wipe it off in the morning before you ride, it doesn't fling anymore than chain wax. For me anyways chain wax attracts dirt or dust which makes my chain nasty looking and much harder to clean. To each their own as chain lube has just as many opinions as which motor oil is best.

Ya got a clicking on my F-2 its my master link, its got a slight kink, I can straightin it but as it travels around the front sprocket it clicks and then its at an angle again, I think I pressed it too tight when I last took it off to clean it and put it back on, oh well I am going for new chain and sprockets this winter

As I start to go I can hear my chain start to click and kinda "feels" a little rough starting out. Once I get up to 4k or 5k I don't hear it but it doesn't mean it isn't doing it still. When I pull up on the chain i comes up about 1/2" - 7/8" depending where on the chanin I pull up on it. On the sprocket, I can move chain moves side to side a little. Any suggestions?
