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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

i bought a husky the other day and Ive been trying to get it running Ive tried everything i can think of and nothing is working, its getting spark its getting fuel to and through the carburetor and it has compression. i cant figure it out. if you have any ideas let me know thanks
 
The first thing I would look for is a sheared flywheel key before you go crazy with anything else.
 
What Johnny said !! There are four basics to make an engine run fuel, spark, compression and timing. If one of these is off an engine shouldn't run. I'd also check the condition of the coil if the flywheel key is good, as a good spark in the open air is not a very good indicator of how well a coil is operating. Under many atmospheres of pressure it requires a lot more umph from a coil for a spark to jump the same given distance.
