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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

How do I remove my tank

I have a 09 te and want to remove my fuel tank. Where is the fuel connector to the efi. Figured I'd better wait and hear what you all have to say than breaking some plastic fitting that is on backorder and spending more money I dont have.
 
Remove the seat, then remove the bolt that secures the tank to the frame up near the head stem, lift up the fuel tank then you will be able to disconnect the wiring for the fuel pump, and also disconnect the fuel line and job done!
 
And as a reminder when you have the tank off, the fuel pump fitting is plastic and easily broken if you drop the tank. Replacement parts are not available from Husqvarna except as a whole new fuel pump assembly. (Though people have been creative in coming up with repairs.) You do -not- want the hassle or expense, so be extra careful not to drop the tank! (Thank you for all the people who have posted their experiences on this one. I learned the easy way, so far.)

Also, how to remove the tank is in the owner's manual.
 
The disconnect is a bitch to get your fingers on and squeeze and pull away from the tank fitting. 2nd time is easier. Maybe have someone hold the tank up so you can get good leverage.

Ya the first time is tough good idea on hav'n someone hold the tank up.:cheers:
 
I have the seat off and the allen bolt up near the headset, just seems the tank is still snug and doesn't want to budge. I must have overlooked the tank removal chapter in the manual, I will try to find.
