Hi Guys,

Also, as for oiling up the "gearbox", Dennis over at LinDen just had some posts about that as well.

A little off topic: Never had problems with Cold War before.

That's ironic,
I was just wondering that exact thing the other day while "topping off".
Thanks!

Hey Miles, You back that neoprene with a non-hardening adhesive and you got yourself a near ideal elastomeric membrane. Now, if it only had some weight you'd have a real winner I think. Sounds like a great idea, I'll have to look into that myself. Neoprene, who woulda thunkit. Should last a goot whi...

Hi there, Was just perusing some Halflinger stuff and saw that one of the parts available is a "hand-crank"... Got me thinking... For those times when you're way out in the bush (or have your vehicle out in the bush) for a long while in the cold, it'd be cool to have a hand-crank start opt...

Yup, working as designed. See the counterweight on the armature?
Designed to stay closed at idle (and low RPMs). Will open up at higher RPMs as you'll need that airflow for efficient burn.

Hey, If your truck is in good shape then you'll have no trouble. I drive my 710k all the time in the freezing arse cold and my Pinzie loves it. I've made a couple of 1000mi plus drives with no trouble (though I do some TLC on the end of those). You'll probably be taking 90 and you'll probably have l...

Yup, I second that last vote. Last winter I had that EXACT problem (only a bit worse) and it was, indeed a frosted over air-filter. According to Dennis, what happens is that (in my case) frost tends to collect on the air filter (specially if you have the stock, metal lathe variety). When the engine ...

Cripes!!
Looks like somebody welded a boat wheelhouse to that mogster...

Yup,
I got my rig + winch bumper from Thilo. First class all the way.

Hi,
Yup... "get er' done--- right the first time"...

Especially interested in the cold weather numbers being correct, so take your time.

PS: Do you have your blog/bBoard set up for those of us who put our monies down?

Hey Guys,
Both right...
1) Loose plug
3) Fuel pump not putting out enough. Good thing I had a rebuild handy...

Any of you guys have trouble with your fuel pumps? This is the second time in 2 years that I've had to replace (I have 2 units that I cylce through)...

Seeya and Happy New Year.

Hi guys, Here's a stumper for you (haven't taken a hard look at it myself yet)... So, driving down the highway at a reasonable speed 50mph, feel a little "surging", well really the opposite of surging, more like the feeling of my float running dry or bad f-pump. No big deal, I'm only about...

Hiya, Don't worry. When I was a new Pinz owner (living in Minnesota), the first winter kinda freaked me out. Froth in the oilcap, frozen air-filter, etc... I've learned to enjoy these things, and got tired of worrying about things I couldn't change (kind of like Pinz AA or something). As far as frot...

Jim,
That explains a lot!
(just kidding)

Happy Holidays
