• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

08 SMR450 injector trouble

Hey guys, my bike sat for a year and the injector got gummed up. Fresh fuel and injector cleaner wouldn't clear it so I pulled the injector and purged the lines. The fuel pump is cycling and spraying fuel.

I directly spayed the injector holes with carb n choke which cleared them up visibly from the outside and I also ran carb n choke through the fuel port while powering the injector.

When I turn the bike over, the injector is still not spraying fuel. I'm wondering if the injector is ruined since it will not open? Any suggestions? I'm not too familiar with fuel injection and hopefully I didnt damage the electrical system or any critical components. Thanks alot
 
Some auto shops have injector cleaning equipment that can power/open the injector and run pressurized solvent through to clean them. Call around or maybe ask one of the auto part shops that supplies the local repair shops, like NAPA, and maybe they can point you in the right direction.
