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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

It looks like I need to make an adjustment to my power valve. Do all the bolts come out, allowing the plate to slide out and is it possible to make some adjustments with the engine in the frame?

Looks a bit tight to me but i am not up for an engine out job if possible. Particularly as I have just put it back in.
 
Do you mean the rectangular cover on the front with the four bolts holding it on ? No adjustments can be done in that area, If assembled wrong the Barrel / Jug will need to be removed to make access easy.
Power valve governer can be removed easily without removeing the engine.
 
On my 03 wre, I managed to get it off, which I'll be honest surprised the hell out of me, as I'd read some where that you had to take the engine out to gain access, maybe I was lucky,
Try your luck, I guess
 
can you put up a photo to check it's how I think it looks? I have wre, yes four little bolts holding on a plate near the front of the cylinder, right against the frame so close it's impossible to undo them and get it off. You can drain coolant, take cylinder off and then clean/ adjust it, but you don't have to take the whole lower end of the engine out. If it's the same as mine, you can take the exhaust off, then access the side of the cylinder and the mechanism to actuate the valve arm without touching the cylinder. Mine has a small bolt in it that keeps coming loose but it means the pv gets stuck open if that helps
