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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

help !! spark plug cap issue

bigd

Husqvarna
C Class
So after bringing my beast home the other day for the first time i thought id have a look at the plug cos i thought it was running rich.
I pulled off the spark plug cap and noticed about 5 or 6 little pebbles sitting in and around the plug!
i spent about an hour trying to flick them out with a piece of wire so they didnt fall into the cylinder !! .. (only then did i realise it would of been much easier to blow them out with an air compressor)
any way the picture says it all.
my spark plug cap doesnt sit far enough over the cap to stop debris getting in !!
is this a common problem or a serious design fault ??
any sugestions for a fix ???
oh by the way the cap is a ngk SD05EM and im using the standard CR8B plug
 
Yep same as mine, just keep the air hose close by before you remove the plug and give it a good "airing out".
