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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

spark plug caps for motoplat?

Ive seen conflicting into on what type of plug cap to use for these ignitions - resistor or non-resistor. I thought non-resistor types were better for older ignitions as they produce a better spark. However, one thread suggests the NGK LBER cap, which is silicone and water proof, but all the LBER's I see are resistor types. I see plenty of cheap NGK non-resistor types for $5.

This is for a motoplat coil with the red lead if that makes a difference.
 
I know Vance say's DON"T use resistor plugs with a motoplat so I would assume the same for the cap.
 
I didn't use resistor plugs or caps on my Motoplats. I don't use them on my new Power Dynamo systems either. Or on the Interspan's in the CCM's.
