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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Timingchaingslide glue.

Hi!
My SMR's timingchaingslide fell off from the valvecover. It was glued to into spikes what were at the valvecover. What kind of glue should I use to glue the slide back? Glue should be resistant to heat, oil and vibration. How high temperatures rises in motor?

Maybe talk to a Sika agent if you have them (As in Sikaflex) They have a huge range of quality sealers & silicones, that or Threebond, used as sealer in most Jap brand cars & bikes for glueing & sealing sumps, timing covers etc.... hope that helps.
 
Correct me if I’m wrong, but the slide tensions the timing chain between the cams which puts upward pressure on the slide at all times. As long as the slide is secured and pressed onto valve cover extrusions it should stay in place regardless of glue or lack thereof.
