• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 Guys , just upgraded my son from a Yami ttr 50 to a Yami ttr90, I know I know its not a Husky, but I need Husky input! The Bike is mint and was my buddies Sons BIke which he out grew and the bike has been sitting , needless to say to carb was like jelly and the gas was bad ,real bad! I took the whole carb apart and cleaned it, when I put it back together she fired right up, when I drove it, it, the rpm continue to rise after you strop throttling the bike, so with the throttle closed position the bike will still want to roll out. Still dirty? I took it apart and I am soaking jets over night, I had a total clog in the pilot jet so I found a microscopic drill bit and ran it through there and it opened up the clog. Ok guys fire away! Thx for the help!
 
My boys crf 50 did the same when I got it. Took it apart a second time and completely went over everything again. Pilot jet got more crap in it. Now you need to adjust the air screw to get it right. The 50 was really finicky with adjustments. Took a little bit of adjusting to get it to run good. My crf100 isn't as touchy as the 50's carb is. Good luck!

Thanks I think I narrowed it down to the slide sticking, Now off to take it apart again Thx
 
Yep they are, the slide is all good, I think I opened up the pilot jet too much when I tried to clean it out! Off to buy a new jet!
 
I may get a little flack for this but I have had good success refurbishing old carbs by soaking them in Pinesol. Just dont leave the lid of the container...not near as pleasant as one would imagine...
