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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE630 fuel filter

Looked everywhere and appears the TE630 has no fuel filter. Is this correct? Has anybody installed one and where? I haven't had my tank off yet so haven't seen the fuel supply line setup.

On the fuel pump, inside the tank, I belive.

I had already looked on the parts fiche before posting this and didn't see anything. Doesn't even appear to be a screen or sock on the fuel pump either. Husky owners and service manuals don't mention any scheduled maintenance for a fuel filter either.

Only filters I see are in the petcocks for side to side tank balance. I guess Husky didn't want any sediment to get in the cross tube and clog it up.

So looks like the first time my tank comes off I will install a small filter in the gas line from fuel pump to throttle body. Especially on a fuel injected bike no filter is really asking for trouble.

I'm sure there's one in there somewhere... Just remember to hose-clamp whatever you install well, it's ~60psi.
 
Here's a picture of the fuel pump assembly out of mine. Looks like it's filtered to me.

Thanks Rsquared I'm glad to see that. But weird thing is Husky doesn't list a replacement filter p/n or specify replacement interval. Do you remmeber if that big inline filter looked to be removable from the pump assembly? I hope we're not forced into buying a complete $400 pump instead of changing out a $10 dirty filter.

I don't believe it was designed or intended to be easily changed. As large as the discharge filter is it'll probably run the life of the pump anyway. Most likely, if and when mine fails, I'll probably end up doing a garage fab using one of these pumps and a universal filter.

I've been trying to find a suitable tank sock but found nothing online. I'm taking mine to Africa and I'd prefer not to have to insist I put a stocking over the pump or filler :)
