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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hi all,

I recently bought a WR 250 and I'm running 40:1 interceptor premix.

I get a lot of spouge, after about 2hrs or so, it's so bad it's running down the bottom of the pipe (FMF)

It cleans off easy enough, but it seams a bit excessive to me. the manual says 40:1 , but are any going to 50:1?

I've been away from zingers for a while, so can't comment on how it runs, as it runs fine for me, and starts fine.

I've read that many put lectrons on their 300's, is it a good fix for 250's?


Thanks much!

(located in Western Wa) this bike is from Bill's in Salem,
 
My WR300 manual says "not less than 50:1". I'm running Motorex Cross Power 2T at 50:1 with no issues.
 
I run 44:1. I get spouge, JT jet kit helped. When it get's bad enough, I repack my muffler. Enjoy your new bike.
 
Hi and welcome. Lots of posts here about spooge and causes and cures, read on. Very likely your silencer is full of spooge, if it hasn't been repacked recently. Also E10 pump fuel is junk, so if you're using that don't expect a clean burn. All the standard stuff too: clean filter, fresh plug, maybe check compression....
My 165 still spooges, but I don't care too much. Have to repack more often, runs like a raped ape through the woods and starts 1 kick cold or hot :thumbsup:

Lectron makes everything better IMO, but didn't effect my spooge output. :cheers:
 
The lectron is money well spent, also you don't have to sell it when you sell your bike, keep it for your next bike!
