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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Do you have a flywheel puller? Mine took several attempts with an impact driver on the tusk pulled tool and liberal application of heat before it would release.
 
Hi mate, look at my thread on advrider.com:
http://advrider.com/index.php?threads/2001-husqvarna-610-engine-rattle.1114892/
I have taken a bunch of photographs for people in your situation. There is some unrelated info which you will have to sift through but I was very careful to take detailed photographs as I went. There are several other useful threads on advrider as well.

To answer your question about the flywheel puller you need a 35mmx1.5

Another pointer, watch that you bolt the cam gear to the cam shaft the correct way, it is possible to do it the wrong way around which will result in a cracked cam gear if you don't notice.

There is also a step by step guide on supermotojunkie:

There are some pitfalls in a fairly detailed job that can end up making it cost a lot more than you thought, the main one on here is the cam gear.
 
Thanks guys
I made a very crude extractor
Broke a couple and finally put some heat to the collar on the flywheel.
It came off.

All for nothing as the chain the dealer sent me was wrong chain.
