  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 pump & delivery hose TE449

I need to replace the fuel hose from the fuel pump to the injector, simple enough. However the bike is full of fuel (and by full, i mean about 20L as i have a Bianchi Prata subframe tank). The fuel taps on both the main and the smaller "pump tank" are seized so i dont have an easy way of stopping the fuel going anywhere.

My question is this: will fuel gravity feed through the fuel pump if i disconnect the outlet house or will most of the fuel stay in the tank and I'll just get a dribble from within the hose.

hell, just pinch the hose between the main tank and the header tank (and maybe the header vent too). Use needle-nose vise grips with tape on 'em.
