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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE 630 won't start when hot in hot weather

I'm getting desperate here. So the problem is that the TE 630 won't start when hot and in hot weather, the fuel pump doesn't charge up when the ignition key is switched on, the relay clicks but the pump doesn't make the usual sound. If I let the bike cool for 15 minutes, the bike starts again. I changed the thermostat valve, changed the coolant, and oil. Still the same problem. The bike is all stock. I'm suspecting the water temperature sensor, the fuel stop sensor, or maybe something else. I tried opening the gas tank to relieve the pressure, also tried push starting it but that didn't work either. Anyone else had the same problem?
 
You say the fuel pump doesn't prime when hot??
Confirm there's power to the pump, don't just assume the relay is good because you hear it. If the pump has power but isn't operating......that's your problem.
You could try hitting the fuel tank when the problem is presenting to see if the pump comes alive.....if that makes the pump operate then it too indicates a failing pump.

I'll try tapping the pump to see if this fixes the problem. The thing is that it's hard to replicate the problem when I'm at the mechanic's where he can test the electricity to the pump.
 
when i was having trouble with my bike i connected it to ibeat & sat watching while it idled, turned out to be an intermittent temp sensor fault that i wouldnt have caught without ibeat.
 
Still waiting for the sensor but today it happened again and I noticed a whistling noise coming from the bike. I opened the gas tank and it made a hissing noise. Then I noticed that the gasoline was boiling. The fan is working so I don't know what's causing this. Any ideas?
 
Did you find out the problem with the TE-630 that won`t start when it`s hot and when it`s hot weather ? I have also this problem
 
it's the fuel pump, mine had the identical issue. It would usually not start beyond 70*F, below that (such as early mornings) it would start fine but would not restart afterwards. Relay would click but the pump would be stuck and would not spin up.

replaced it with a $65 Quantum pump kit and it's never been an issue since.
