These carbs use a choke mechanism that actually increases the amount of fuel rather than decreasing the amount of air to enrich the mixture, as in most carbs. So if the choke is not adjusted correctly it is actually dumping extra fuel down the carbs. The problem of engine oil diluted with gas has be...

Hard to say why they (Styer) would have assembled yours the way that they did. I think you are correct that it should be one or the other. I've had five 710M's and all had the valve box and the 2 -hole HE. Not that that indicates anything. Perhaps during assembly of your particular unit they were ou...

The first photo of the engine is a photo I posted on another thread of the engine in one of my other Pinz's. It did indeed have the thermostatically controlled warm air intake for the carbs. I installed that Styer factory revision and the new hose. Here in Wisconsin the improvement was noticeable du...

I don't recall the paint color. That photo is from 8-10 years ago and a different Pinz than my current one. Knowing me, it was probably just some paint I had around in the shop.

You may want to check the position of the clamps that secure that vacuum hose in place. It's possible that over time they have rotated around their securing bolts and allowed the hose to come to close to the fan shroud.

Is this what you're looking for? IMG_6940.jpeg IMG_6941.jpeg IMG_6943.jpeg You could probably use this type of screw also. Available from McMaster.com and likely Fastenal also.

I found that using wood (pine) carpenters wedges helped to hold the door in position while adjusting and tightening the hinges.
Lots easier with 2 people.

Found it!

I have a used one that was partially rebuilt since parts of the bottom had rusted out. Bottom was cut out and new steel was welded in. Sanded and primed as I recall. It's buried in one of my sheds but I'll find it and take some photos for you. It has no door.

Great - glad those fasteners finally gave in. It would be a good idea to completely flush all 3 of the hydraulic lines since they do tend to get gummed up over time. I'd start by removing the indicator light panel for access to the fluid reservoir. Then remove the cap and strainer, and using a turke...

These may help:

I agree with rmel but use a #3 phillips. I've had these get stuck before too.

Yes indeed. Aircraft Spruce an d others carry various styles of heater duct if you’re interested in replacing the old stuff.

That is the nozzle for the floor heat. The heater hose attaches from above.
