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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Husky Coil Question

G

Husqvarna
C Class
I have an old husky SM610 yr 2000 & the coil is shot.. I get a reading one way but not the other. So there's a break somewhere in the wire.. no probs!

However I cant seem to find a new ignition coil for my bike, as it's old. Seems my coil is 70mm whilst they only sell 55mm & 80mm.

So I need to know what the resistance is between the 2 readings.. and hence my question.

I got this from a manual I downloaded offline =

"Remove the fastening screws, the ignition coil then measure the resistance in the primary and
secondary windings using a tester.
- Primary winding resistance: check for the continuity.
- Secondary winding resistance: 5,0÷7,5 KOhm a 20°C (without spark plug cap
cable); 10,0÷12,5 KOhm a 20°C (with spark plug cap cable)
If the resistance is not between the specified values, replace the electronic coil.
Also, check the resistance of the terminal cap contact with the spark plug.
- Terminal cap resistance: 4,5÷5,5 KOhm a 20°C.
If the resistance is not between the specified values, replace the electronic coil."

So is this saying the resistance should be between 5.0 - 7.5 or should I be dividing 5/7.5 =0.6 ?

Or am I missing it completely.. ??

Basically the local bike shop by me sells coils, which he says are pretty interchangeable providing I know what the resistances are.. so what are my resistances ??
