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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Cam timing in owners man wrong 95 WXC 610

Did anyone catch this? I was installing my cam and sprocket following the manuals instructions carefully. (I had downloaded a service manual here as well) I set the cam timing using the sprocket to cam mounting bolts horizontal to the head as instructed, with the piston on TDC compression stroke (which hasn't been assigned until the cam is installed) I kept looking at the position of the lobs and cycling it over and over thinking this is wrong. I pulled it apart again for the third time knowing both lobs need to be in the down position at TDC compression stroke. I had noticed one dot on the sprocket but the manual didn't mention it at all. I started looking for other documentation to verify the cam position. I looked at an '00 manual that showed sprocket markings in the position I know it needs to be in, and that the engine is considerably different than the 95. If you put it where the manual says The piston will be on a Down stroke as the exhaust valve opens. that is so messed up
 
Earlier ones were parallel later they are perpendicular.
Doesnt matter what the manual says lobes must be forward and down on the exh amd rearward and down on int.
Later George
