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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

my spark plug unit is broke! with pics

hardinglad

Husqvarna
AA Class
getting no spark at all
couldnt find the problem

no lose wires
stator is great

still no spark

realised the spark plug cover was lose even when full on it didnt seem like it was on. could wobble it so cut it open 2 find this






maybe this is the way they are

but does not seem right to me

but what do i do now
looks like its a sealed unit (cdi unit apparently) can i not just buy a new spark plug connector?
 
this is what is inside the spark plug connector

im guessing the 2 bits are ment to be joined but its broke.

the smaller bit is the bit that clips onto the top of the sparkplug completing the circuit
 
Happened to me just recently. If you don't pull it off properly, it will break like that. I now use pliers that have a C hook on them so they grab the whole thing and I pull directly up. Only thing you can do is replace it with the OEM part because it has some special resistance in it that the CDI can sense.

so i cant just buy a standard spark plug connector?

thats a bit annoying

i have a husky 125 of the same year but its a different spark plug unit
