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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Some folks have had success having the imperfect bore re-sleeved. I won't kid you- I'm not totally sure what all that entails. I'd imagine it's just that: having it drilled/bored out and then installing a sleeve with the inner diameter that's stock or close to the stock I.D., so it's set up for readily available rebuild kits.

Mine only leaked once and I used the rebuild kit you're using. That was a very long time ago and I'm hoping my luck continues. I've got over 17K miles on my 630 now and I think my leak occurred when I had about 6K miles on the bike.
 
did you have an internal scratch like me on your pump?

Not that I could tell, although the overall finish did not look all that smooth. Given that mine has held up, since, I'm thinking it must be smooth enough (or I've just been lucky and the new internals have bedded in/sealed just right.)
 
Your black gasket doesn't look too bad

When I changed the "repair kit" I thought I had a spare at home... but it was not a new one but an old one... the one I changed from the TE 310 :rolleyes:

Anyway I installed it and since then I have (makes sense) a tiny leak. Not a big deal... I clean it and that's it :)

But you're right, magura is not a quality product... at least with the ones that sold to husqvarna
