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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

WP_20150307_001.jpgWP_20150307_002.jpg When draining the oil I found shards of metal on the drain plug magnet, so I took the clutch cover off to find out what's wrong.
In the botton was half a large circlip type thing, and a loose disc of metal behind the freewheel clutch.
The problem now is I'm not sure how all these parts were originally assembled, as the workshop and parts manuals show just a thin metal disc which goes between the freewheel clutch and sprocket behind.
Can anyone make any sense of this?
I also need to find the other half of the circlip type thing, which must be in the gearbox, so engine out and totally rebuild.
 
I found out what happened - The sprag clutch edge had worn away so much, it no longer had any holes to keep the tags of the circlip located, so it just popped out. It then forced off the retainer disc, mangling the 4 tags, before falling into the gearbox to be destroyed. Engine now apart, and no other damage done :)
