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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TDC ? Help me

I am assembling my engine for the first time and this is as close as I can get the marks to line up. This at tdc. The manual is kinda vague when it comes to this. Can anyone please help me out and let me know if this is ok. I can also move the chain one link on the gear and it will end up a little off on the other side.

Thank you.

FYI - I put it back together today and all went well. The manual says to set it at tdc but from the picture above to where the notches line up is 0.09 mm in piston movement back down. That is what was throwing me off, but it runs fine, so oh well.
 
I've seen this in car engines, its caused by the combination of
sprocket wear and chain stretch. On a car it will set a cam timing
code, usually with no drivability complaints. To confirm you need
to measure the pin to pin distance on the chain and measure the
sprockets valley to valley straight across the center line, I'm not
sure if husqvarna offers these specs. But you may be able check
the measurements against new parts at the dealer.
