• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 much oil? - aftermarket oil pump and filter?

Sund

Husqvarna
B Class
I have a 95-98 TC engine which doesn't come with an oil pump, or oil filter.
Mine has both installed now. How much oil should I give it, when changing the oil and filter?
How often would you change the oil? (I only ride on the road.)

What happen if one gives an engine like that too much oil, does it just have an "overflow security" somewhere? - or will bad stuff happen?

Thanks in advance! :-)
 
Hi,

Here is manual for your bike, stock oil quantity will be there.

I change my oil after every day long ride.

Oil is relatively cheap in comparison to engine parts.

I use Belray Thumper Racing 15w/50, Synthetic Ester Blend.

It is very easy to get caught up in the advertising hype and pay too much for oil.

Too much oil you could blow seals!

Cheers, Dave.
 
I have no idea which model og brand it is. Last owner said nothing about it.
Iam trying to replace the hoses as one of them were cracked.

Last one is from the top of the Oil filter.

So.. How much oil would you guys think.. I should run with? :-)
 
I would work out the amount held by the add on bits, filter , pipe work pump etc. Then add it to normal amount for a start and run it for a bit. stop it and check the oil level. Adjust to suit!
 
Wow someone went to a lot of thinking on that. I would probably just get the newer cases that have the oil pump in them already.

This sounds like the best route. Interesting to see how the P/O did it, but how could you possibly leave out the retro-fitment of an oil pump and filter as a selling point? lol
 
It also has a hydraulic clutch.
I dont know why he did not say anything about that. Dont think he knew that much about the bike. Not the last owner who did the stuff. And I diden't ask because I was (still am) a newbie :)
