  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 I will build my own oil cooler for my TE511

Well I can't sleep thinking about poking a hole in the cover :) I have allready thought of 3 different ways I want to make the oil pickup. My newest idea involves a $3.50 brass hose barb and some Blue Magic Quick Steel putty that's rated for 500 degrees .. No welding !

that will actually work just fine for testing.

My thinking for not sending the oil through the cooler and to the head was to avoid starving the head for oil at startup. But now that I've said that, I realize that an anti-drainback checkvalve could be put in the cooler inlet side. The point is moot for me though, as after talking with Bill (BMP) I don't need an oil cooler unless I move to somewhere else.

I don't see that as a real issue, there's a nice pool of oil up there for start up and it will only take a split second longer to get oil up there than it would with just the hose that's there. I'm thinking something like this.

Nope, you need to purchase aluminum brazing rod which you can braze with a regular propane torch (700°F)
