I am not normally that picky about colors. However on the 7-19C which I used 2 saws to make one complete runner. Same thing on the 707DA. I am painting the "ash tray" starter cover on both and the cast exhaust deflector. I have searched as many sources as I can find, and don't get a consistent answer. On one of the 7-19C the exhaust came with a red deflector but many original looking saws have a green deflector. On the 707DA I usually see a red starter cover. I can not find much consistency even between the Gear models. Also what is the 707D 707D1 707DA and 707DA1.....what does the "1" mean??? "A" is full wrap handle 1. On the 707 I finally carbide end milled out the broken off top gas tank stud (on oil tank) and the broken off rear right cylinder stud. Since I had to pull the cylinder and piston off, I found one of the wrist pin circlips was not seated in the groove in the NEW piston. 2. also on the 707 the points ramp on the crank is worn back and would certainly retard the timing as well as the rough texture eating the points fiber faster than normal. I can polish it to reduce the wear. I should have the 707 running in a few days...the 7-19C already runs but need more attention to the carb. Had both these saws in the attic of my garage since the mid 80's so it's about time huh! thanks
