  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 TC 450 problems

I could use some advice. I bought an 07 TC450 last spring. It started up easily and was huge fun to ride. It started backfiring, a lot on deceleration and randomly kicked back, violently at times. I replaced the cracking intake manifold and found this helped but not completely cured the problems. After sitting out the summer (live in the Phoenix area) I took it out in September. The backfiring had returned big time, on close examination the new intake manifold had cracked through. I checked the carb and replaced the manifold. Now it won't start, still backfires when I kick it but only sputters and dies. Any ideas? Does anyone in the Phoenix area know a shop that has experience with Italian Huskys?
