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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TC 510 oil pump pressure

Hi there

I've recently done done top end on my Husqvarna TC 510 2006 and it all fires up.

My question is about oil pump... In order to double check everything is getting nicely lubricated I checked the new oil filter I put in and I was expecting the oil be all over the place but it looks like the oil hasn't touched some parts of the filter.

When I left the oil filter cover off and spun the engine couple time it's not really splashing the oil everywhere...

Now I'm concerned if the oil is getting to the top of the engine via the oil hose.

Has anyone similar experience?

Thanks
 
So you didn't do the bottom end or remove the oil pump? If you did put the proper amount of oil in, it seems the pump could be cavitated or the gear not engaged on pin. The left side case has an oring that needs to be there, did you forget that? I'd suggest remove the oil line that connects to the head and using a syringe inject oil down into the case hole. Pull the spark plug and crank the engine over until you see oil pressure from the top of the oil hose. Use a good moly grease to lube the cam and tappets.
 
No I haven't touched the bottom end at all. When I took the rocker cover off (before we did the top end) it was all nicely lubricated up there. So I assume the oil flow was fine.

I'll try the trick with syringe with the spark plug and let you know.

Cheers

Hi Guys

an update on my oil pressure mystery. So we took the casing apart and I was really not impressed what I saw.

The oil pump appears to half missing ... According to the manual there should oil pump case and two rotors. what I got was no case and just one rotor rattling around. Please see pictures what was there. No wonder it wasn't pumping any oil.

However what's really puzzling me is .. I've been running the bike for a year (close to a race pace) and nothing gave up .. when I too the top end apart it was all nicely lubricated. 20120310_124923.jpg20120310_124045.jpg20120310_125057.jpg So it seems like Husqvarnas don't even need an oil pump ...

I bought the bike second hand last year in a fairly good nick with invoices etc so I didn't expect this one.
It's 2006 model or it should be.. I attached engine # if anyone can read what year this should from it.

Has anyone come across any other Husqvarnas without an oil pump...?

Thanks
