• Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Sweden - About 1988 and older

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I left the petcock on reserve last fall and the fuel filled the engine. What is the best way to clear it out. I kicked it over about a dozen kicks before I realized it was full and fuel was running out of exaust port. I pulled the plug and put it in gear and pushed it back and forth till gas quit blowing out of plug hole. My question is will the gas in the bottom end clear out if it starts? Hope someone can give advice. Thanks
 
I would probaby take the pipe off and the plug out and spin it over plenty with a power drill . or just run around pushing it in gear . kicking it won't really stir it up enough . it should start after you've blown most of it out
 
I pushed it up and the drive in 1st gear with the plug out, I think I got most of the gas out. Left the plug out will put fresh plug in in the morning and try it. Thanks
