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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Gday all,
I am using Univis J26 in my 420 auto and i only have a small amount left in the drum so i was wondering if anyone could help me find an oil that will do the job the univis will do that hasn't got the big dollar price tag. Any ideas :notworthy:

Many thanks

:applause:

Thanks a lot that info is very helpful :notworthy:

I realize that your suppler or brands might be different than what is available over here but it gives me a bigger data base to use when i call the oil company tech help line.

So if anyone else could share what oil you are using in your auto's that would be greatly appreciated.

Univus is available out of Melbourne,I posted the address a while ago.When it was not available,Husky Imports used to buy it in 44 gal drums.Hans Applegrin,ex long term OZ Husky importer, told me to use Motrex 5 wt suspending oil,I still have 10litres of Univus I bought, just had a look at the box but no address,try a search on here under my user name.
Vince in Sydney,with a 420 as well
 
This thread : http://www.thumpertalk.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-632731.html , was on the Thumpertalk forum a while back and discussed various Auto issues such as oils , transmission springs and freewheel bearings. I am pretty certain that I read the specs on "B&M Trickshift" transmission fluid and found that it was not much better than ordinary car ATF. I did read that Phillip at Husqvarna_Parts now has an oil available for Husky Autos, that has similar specs as Univis J26 (or Ohlins shock fluid), but is supposed to be cheaper.
 
Zim and Barrobuild are the same bloke,me,and the Melbourne oil suppler contact is in that thread,Thanks 500evo
