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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Here in the wet East I had problems running No-Toil at wet events-degraded the filter oil. Don't use it anymore. What do you use instead of gas for solvent type filter oil?

I agree with No-Toil having issues in wet or hi humidity conditions. I quit using No-Toil after experiencing filter plugging during some 100% humidity rides. The filter already had some dirt on the outside surface and the No-Toil/dirt appeared to absorb the water vapor and turned the surface into to something that wouldn't pass air.

I have since switched to PJ1 spray or Belray. I think the No-Toil is good for dry condition and when cleaned often which is easy with the simple cleaning process.

As far as the flash screen, I figured the EFI system doesn't have a bowl of fuel to be blown out towards the filter. Just a theory.
 
I use PJ1 filter cleaner and Bel-Ray oil. Pulled out the screen in the air filter box. I don't think backfiring is a big problem with EFI.
