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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

FYI, I was installing more CV4 insulation onto the bottom of my fuel tank. I was working first with fuel in the tank and decided that that was kinda a pita. So I drained the tank and immediately noticed lots of rattling inside the tank. The pump filter screen came out when I shook the tank around. This told me that the pump was unsecured. I pulled the 4 screws and was holding just the base, the pump assy was just hanging off the umbilicals (wire and hoses). The dual pump clips had popped out of the base retainer. I exercised the clip arms (bent them out carefully) and reassembled the pump and filter then reinstalled the assembly. I also covered the pump assembly cover with CV4 insulation to keep heat away from the pump. Good to go. So just give your tank a shake around to make sure nothing is unsecured inside your tank (FI models).
PS my TE310 is subject to more extreme activity/vibration/g forces than most.
