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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

efi fuel tank shut off

Ok, this may sound silly. Husky is new to me as is efi on a bike, when I disconect the fuel line from the tank, gas dribbles out. I'm thinking it's not supposed to do that.?
Thanks in advance.
 
from my experience, it only drips out a little then stops. what i do is put a piece of hose over the outlet and use forceps to keep it from dripping. or you can just keep a rag under it to catch the drips so it doesn't make a mess over your work area.
 
Thanks man! I can't seem to make the bike run after it stalled out on the trail, I think I may have an issue with fuel. I actually drained the tank dry by way of the main fuel line. No other way to remove the tank without a mess. I'm thinking something came apart in the tank.
 
Can you hear the pump cycle? Turn the key on and push the run button, it should cycly every time it is in the run position for about 4 sec.
 
My petcock doesn't work either. I forgot to turn the gas on when unloading my bike. after riding for 30 min I remember I hadn't turned it on sure enough after riding for over a half hour it was still in the off position. It has never caused any issues but just one of those little things.
 
Fuel will dribble out of the red 90degree fuel line connector when you disconnect the line. The more fuel you have in the tank the more it will dribble. The weight of the fuel is forcing it out. If you are having trouble getting your EFI bike to run and you have not ever taken the fuel pump out, I would go check that. Even if it is priming, if it has "unseated" (common problem with the EFI huskies) that will cause the bike to stop running. It is an easy fix, just use some Stainless Steel wire to secure the pump in it's "nest".

I just did a tank swap and moved my pump over to the new 3 gal tank and as usual, it pukes some gas when I disconnect the fuel line.

Search on here, there are plenty of threads about it and plenty of us have been effected by that same issue. It happened to me in a race. Got home, dropped the fuel pump assembly out and sure enough, my pump was about 1/2 inch out of it's nest. As soon as I safety wired it in place, have not had a single issue since.

I pulled the pump out, it has been wired down by the previous owner. The pump primes when the red button is out and after the engine cranks. I have a strong spark on a new plug and fuel is getting to it but it won't even pop. It acts like the ignition timing is off. I am looking into TPS and other sensors that affected timing.

My cam timing is right on, I'm finding there is much more to ignition timing than the carb bikes. Something is telling it to spark at way out of time. Does anyone know where the flywheel picks up a signal for the crank position sensor?
