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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2012 TE511 Coolant Q...

Just giving another suggestion. As it is one larger less chance of stripping and as he has stripped it once will not be ham fisted with it again. Also not a bolt you take in and out a lot. Just a suggestion that has worked for me many times like fork pinch bolts where heli-coil is not EZ to install.

Sorry for the short response. I was in a hurry. Please don't read anything else into it other than my opinion.
 
Walt,
There is one on ebay for $35 search:
2011 Husqvarna 449 511 Used Engine Water Pump Cover TXC TXC511 TE511 TE449 TE

Also the "Timesert" works well with some sealant for liquid/pressure thread repair.
