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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2010 TXC Breather Hose Question

Phoenix

Husqvarna
AA Class
Hello all. I have a 2010 TXC 250. I noticed when ordering some parts that the breather hose that comes out of the frame is supposed to go to the airbox for this model. Mine appears to have been modified so that it just hangs down like the TC 250. The hole in the airbox has a plug on it. Is this something that would adversely affect the performance of the bike?

Performance, not affected, and I believe the length would help keep any dirt from making it all the way to the motor, even tho the breather does actually breathe in and out as the piston moves up and down, the engine is net exporter of air. You might feel better if you put a crankcase breather filter on the end of the hose.

I would definately put a breather filter on it if your going to keep it hanging down like the TC model.

I think the TE TXC purpose for it attaching to the air filter boot is for emissions to recirculate back into the motor.
 
On my 2010 tc 250 the hose from valve cover goes to frame above motor. I did have one time where I had valve cover leak like it was not venting proper and building up pressure but never did it again has anybody else had this problem. I took vent hose off and everything looked good I did drill small hole in frame to make sure frame was not sealed with paint or mud.
 
The hose to the airbox is a source of a lot of oil being sucked out of the motor when ridden at hi rpms.

I may have to look at hanging mine down like yours.
