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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE449 Oil Screens. Which goes where?

Of course I can put it back together just the way I took it apart, but that doesn't mean the guy who owned it before me did it correctly.


The shop manual shows two different exploded views for each screen. The screens are distinctly different. The bizarre part is that they show each screen going into the same hole. I referred to the Shop Manual 1st edition (08-2010) _Rev. 11-2010 Page D.13.


One screen is symetrical end to end. The other is not. Which goes in the front port & which goes into the rearward port (closest to the oil drain plug)?
 
Follow up - I looked at the parts manual and was able to determine which goes where. The symmetrical filter screen tube goes toward the rear of the bike, closest to the drain plug. The non-symmetrical screen tube goes toward the front of the bike. The screen on the forward tube does not completely go from end to end. There is an opening in one end of the sidewall of this tube. This opening gets installed closest to the filter screen screw cap - outboard facing or stated otherwise, closest to your left foot peg.
 
Thanks for letting us know how the screens go (I do not have that bike). :cheers:

I'll move this over to 4st.

General (Main) -> 4st
