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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2011 Tc 250 Won’t Start

Back story: a few months ago I replaced the cylinder head myself and everything was running smoothly after. Lately it seems the spark plugs were fouling a lot quicker (NGK Iridiums) and I’ve been having to kick a lot more before it would start. This past week I’ve replaced all the fluids and spark plugs and started up second kick. Just in time for my cross country trip. Got to Ouachita National forest to ride and it ran fine for the first 20 minutes. I was going up hill and it began the sputter so I down shifted and gave it more gas, after another 100 yards or so it sputtered again and killed over. Will no longer kick start and when I tried to bump start it will die after a few seconds either while gassing it or not. Since I’m traveling I don’t have my full tool set so I was only able to check spark plugs and the plug seemed to be fine. Cam chain and tensioner are still tight as well.


Any thought?
 
Check the throttle body hasn’t detached from the engine. It can happen after a backfire.

It sounds like a fuel pump pressure issue.
