[QUOTE="Chris611, post: 15304, member: 577"] I have a 530 that I just bought. It has a K582 Kohler in it. It has a Nelson muffler that each cylinder feeds into and then it exits on the center top of the engine comparment with a 90 degree elbow. The muffler and pipes that go from the cylinders to the muffler cannister are really hot. Seems like they are too hot. I checked the fuel adjustment screws. The engine manual says the main fuel screw is to be 3 turns out. When I got the machine it was a 4. Don't know if that would cause an increase in heat. THe manual says that would make it rich. Do these little machines just operate that hot? SHould I wrap the muffer and pipes? Thanks Chris [/QUOTE]
