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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

manual decompression

Husqvarna
AA Class
Did a valve check yesterday and I took off the manual decompression bracket that attaches to the exhaust valve cover. Now I'm rather ashamed to say, I can't figure out how to get it back on AND working correctly. In any position that I can put the bracket on in, it seems it hits something before getting through it's full range of motion, whether it be a radiator or a valve cover.
Bike is a 99 410 kicker, but I would assume the older 610 kickers would be the same.

Maybe just a picture of what it is supposed to look like would be enough.

Thanks,
Zach
