• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

07 SM 610 Leaking Gas from Exhaust

Hello All. I need some help with my Husky SM610. I think the float valve is stuck and it`s leaking fuel in the engine and all the way trough the exhaust.
It`s basically dripping gas at the lowest point of the exhaust, and only when it`s on the kickstand, if it`s standing upright, it doesn`t seem to leak any gas.
Is this fixable by miself? Take the carb out and clean it? And what other steps would I need to tale?
The engine oil might be contaminated also.

Thank you!
 
I have an 08 sm610 and it is fuel injected.
Mine leaks fuel from the breather pipe on the clutch lever side top of the tank when on the side stand.
It is when the tank is full enough that when lent over on the stand the fuel level is higher than the breather.
The pipe ends just below the headers.

Ok. It leaked gas trough the entire engine and exhaust I think. Thanks

I doubt it.
A stuck float fills the sump with petrol
I just go fill up before a run out, not after, so theres less fuel in the tank when its in my shed.
I would like a screw on type fuel cap with breather, then i could block the one off on the front of the tank.
