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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I found these web sites from other newsgroups and though I would send them out...

This one points to what is in most fuel additives and is sponsored by a site selling a fuel additive for most common ethanol problems... But it does have some good info and is easy to navigate ...

This site is linked to from the site above ... I wish checking the oil on a bike was as easy as checking the fuel mixtures ..

At this time - the only common fuel station selling fuel with no ethanol (in Ontario, Canada) is Shell V power. It's labelled right on the pump.

I have not carefully tested it in my Husky.

There was an article about fuel in Dirt Bike magazine a couple of months ago. They talked about the issue of ethanol in the fuel. I know it is almost impossible to find fuel in the area where I live without 10% ethanol. The article recommended a product called Starbrite Startron. Been around the marine world for awhile. Anyhow, I have always used Stabil, but I picked up a bottle of Startron recently at Bass Pro Shop. Today was at the local Honda dealership and they are now carrying it as well.
 
It says 10% ethanol max at the pump. Do you think there is capacity to produce enough ethanol to treat all of the pump gas in the United States to that percentage and still have enough to make e-85? Though I havn't read much lately it used to be ethanol or mtbe was all that was approved to use to meet some standard.
