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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

630 Flame-Out?

Have just been reading a different thread on the subject of a 449 flame-out. Although I didn´t quite know what a "flame-out" is, the description tarried with my latest prob with my 630. It came back from its annual service at the local Husky dealer in perfect nick ... except for two things: (a) it had started straight off previously, but now needed much too long to fire up. And (b) when at speed on the motorway, I reduced power, it didn´t respond immediately when I re-applied it. This is disconcerting, to say the least.

The solution in the previous thread is that a contact had come loose between a capacitator and ground on the 449. I removed the saddle, fumbled around looking for a broken ground attach point, pushed and pulled on everything I could find, replaced the saddle and attempted to fire her up. She started straight off for the first time in weeks.

The frustrating thing is that I still don´t know what I´d done and suspect it´ll happen again. Any ideas?
