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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Fuel line off the fuel pump in tank??

Just replaced the pump on my te510 09 and now i need to replace the fuel line from the pump to the fuel filter. What hose should i use as husqvarna dont have a replacement hose.
 
I used the submersible 5/16" FI hose, like $20 a foot, but worth it. I've had to change my fuel filter 2 more times since I installed the high-end hose and it's been worth it to have nice, pliable hose to work with.

Ordinary fuel line is designed to handle fuel on the inside only. With in-tank applications, gasoline also comes in constant contact with the outside hose surface, making it vital to utilize a hose that's engineered to be submersible.
Gates Submersible Fuel Line Hose is capable of handling gasoline, alcohol-extended gasoline, ethanols, biodiesel or diesel fuel in fully-immersed, mobile and stationary applications.
  • Engineered for constant contact with gasoline (and other liquid petroleum distillates) on the inside and the outside.
  • Excellent for use on fuel pumps in the gas tank (100 psi working pressure).
  • Fluoroelastomer (FKM) tubed cover resists gas permeation and retards aging.
  • Aramid Fiber reinforcement—the same fiber used in bulletproof vests and is pound-for-pound stronger than steel.
  • Meets the SAE 30R10 specification for submersible fuel line hose applications.
  • Maximum temperature +302 Degrees F (+150 Degrees C).
