• Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Sweden - About 1988 and older

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Coil question for my 250 1978

Hi there guys. A few question regarding my 250 (cr?Wr?) 1978. I have a broken coil and need to replace it. Just not shure what to get. The former owner put new flywheel, points and everything. the flywheel is now a FEMSA Var1-48. The frame number is ML 24660. Anybody know what kind of coil I need to get?
Thanks :)
 
Are you needing the magneto coil (behind the flywheel) or the ignition coil (under the fuel tank)?
 
I am using an Emgo 24-71532 universal ignition coil with my Femsa magneto. Has worked very well for several seasons. The coil does not come with a spark plug connector, so you'll need to get one also. The bolt holes on the coil do not match the holes on the frame so you have to drill one new hole (closer together than the stock coil).

Automotive condensers can be cross referenced from 70's GM vehicles or purchased from Hugh's Bultaco if you really need FEMSA points and condenser
 
When you fit your new condenser, fit by the coil under the tank, the environment is much better for it there!
 
HI guys. Just recived my coil and will hook it up any day now. One question (yes I migh just be an idiot an thankfully I do not fix old huskys for a living...my family would be starving). The question, the broken qoil at took of my husky had two outputs, the new one is single output. From my stator I have a yellow and a black wire. I am guessing yellow on the output on coil and black on ground? Does anyone have a drawing of hooking up the killswitch? The old setup is a bit conufsing for a simple guy like me...
