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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

250-500cc Where do I start?

Haha Aldi popping up over here now. I'll try sum rtv over the orings n let dry them install with more for seal. Again in fairness the rtv only got cooked by the sand race lasted ok before that.

Easy enough to change jus don't remember havin to do so often before. Mite jus be that I'm usin stock pipe again(thin walled n tinny) not gnarly(heavy gauge) n hav the force bashy/guard combo that probly amplifies the tinny sound.

PS Don't swear at me OMG ya f#%kbag my ears are not used to that harsh profanity.
PPS I'm not lazy jus a little unmotivated sumtimes! ;)
 
Could be lack of air flow over exhaust with the force bash guard heating up the header more... ?
Tbh I never knew that Viton died at 200 odd seems strange to be calling them high temp.
 
I've been hearing a strange noise on the 165 lately, can't quite place it. Now wondering if I toasted the exhaust orings?? I think I have spares and a crush washer too. Washer is PITA so most don't use it :doh: just clean up the exhaust port, couple spots of RTV on the washer, stick it in there, install pipe and go!
