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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

250-500cc Exhaust problems

Hey I recently bought a 1992 360. when I tried to take the gas tank off, the petcock on the right side interferes with the exhaust, so I had to tediously remove the petcock. Does that mean the whole exhaust pipe has been tweaked? Also on the left there is a y joint in the radiator hose which rests on the exhaust.

Also, the o-ring gasket in the exhaust is broken, is there a specific replacement I need or can I just get an oring from ace hardware?
 
the exhaust o-ring is a Husky part, heat type o-ring
the exhaust will need to be jigged and straightened, or take it to someone that can heat and reshape
the y should not be touching but one of mine is very close and never had an issue
 
A bearing service etc should be able to replace the O ring. You need a Viton for heat and oil etc resistance. I 'glued' mine back in the pipe recess with high temp silicone and works fine.
 
Ok so I bought a really thick O ring at the hardware store so maybe that will work, if it fails I will look into finding a good heat proof one. I'm not going to worry about reshaping the exhaust though, I'll find an fmf pipe for it sooner or later :)

if its a 92 it has an odd exhaust, there is no new replacement for it
the 92 was the first 360 and 93 the went to a different pipe configuration
is your head pipe over or in the exhaust port?
