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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Be careful not to do this to your 2010 TC 250

After servicing the carb on Cody's TC 250 this Saturday in preparation for some MX practice, I noticed the motor coughing, bogging, and decel popping after throttle blips. Prior to servicing the carb, everything was fine. Now I'm thinking I dorked something up bad! However, unlike my usual method of troubleshooting which includes finding the problem after doing 9000 futile things... this time I got lucky.

I thought the symptoms seemed related to the accelerator pump so I popped the plastic black cover off the cable pulley to see if my O-ring has torn. I immediately noticed that the little tab on the left, back side of the plastic cover that "snaps" the left side of the cover in place was bent inward toward the accelerator pump linkage causing it to restrict full motion and throw off the timing! :banghead: Duh, talk about stupid mistakes. Once I saw what I had done, I remebered the cover feeling "funny"... not quite seated in place when I installed it the first time. I thought, "that's weird" but proceeded to tighten the bolt anyway. What an idiot!!! :banghead::banghead:

At least I found it quickly. :D
 
LOL every time I feel that "hmm thats wierd" thing I screw something up. I should write them down as they happen so I can go back and fix my mistakes easier. Thanks for the confession and glad you figured it out quickly.
 
Actually, that little tab is hard to get right on the TC. The shock is just right to make it where it wants to go inside and not outside like it should.

I had it start to happen to me once, but when the bolt didn't hit right I took it back off and investigated as to why it wasn't acting right. When things bind up that usually means something is going wrong.

That's exactly what happened to me. It wasn't acting right when I inserted the bolt, but I got in a hurry and stuped out! :busted:
