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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Position of Left Bag Filter on 2009 model?

I didn't pay attention to the orientation of the left side bag filter when I removed it. However, the more logical orientation looks the complete reverse of the what's shown on the parts fiche. The diagram shows a flat outside cover plate but my 2009 cover plate looks different. It has a protrusion on the inside of the cover plate. The inner bag filter fits perfectly over this protrusion with the gasket side (the flared side) facing outward, making a nice seal. If I reverse the inner bag filter as shown on the diagram, it's metal on metal. Could they have changed this on the '09?

See post #4 here for diagram: http://www.cafehusky.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9605
 
My '08 should be the same as yours.

The inner filter sleeve does appear reversed in the document. The narrow end goes into the engine first, and should fit nicely into its socket there, leaving the flared end at the outside.
 
Just did mine before I went down to Death Valley last week. It IS the reverse of what is shown on the parts fiche. Any other questions feel free to ask.

Thanks guys! I'm guessing that it would not have gone in the other way but I never tried.

I tried and it only fits one way. I took mine out the first time and didn't think I needed to check it that close, but I was wrong.
