'Green' as in safer for the environment? Is this a vegetable based oil? Some of these do not store well and will congeal to the point the saw's oil pump can't move them anymore. I would wager that the oil has gone bad and you will have to remove it from your saw and clean out the pump and lines. Sometimes pouring out the old oil and filling the reservoir with kerosene or diesel [or ATF] and running it out works, but it may be so bad that you would have to disassemble the saw to get that mess out of there. 
We just drag them down..... Until they're just like us !!!  BNL
