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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Stranded...

I've never run it dry, but may have starved it a few times with long wheelies on low fuel... New pump came in, I'm on vacation but I should get it in next week.
 
Finally got around to replacing the pump, letting the sealant dry right now. Had to ditch the factory pump hose inside the tank, it wouldn't come off of the pump nipple, so I just used regular fuel line and some small clamps. The pump location is nothing like the 610s I've worked on, it's on an extended bracket towards the rear of the tank.

Did you check the fuel hose was submersible type?
I just want to warn you that proper submersible fuel hose needs to be used.
