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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Temp sensor discovery

Today I saw what looked like a sensor sitting right on top of the rocker cover, loose, just flopping around.left it there went for a ride till up to temp then stopped and cable tied it up high, more in a cooler flow of air over the top of the radiator.Rode back the way I came noting the temps on the dash each way.10 Deg difference. So it seems there is an airbox sensor and this other sensor take readings from a h ot environment. Could be why these things are running lean and stalling. The dash allways has read way hotter than ambient but now is still a bit high and drops quickly 3-5 Deg from stopped to back on the move. Fuelling from low down seems more crisp, no stalls and seems to be pulling harder. I plan to fiddle with it's position to get the lowest number when on the move.

FYI.
 
If you are talking about a rectangular plastic in-line item, mine came loose too. I just cable tied it up out of the way but have no idea where the factory had it. Pretty sloppy work by the Factory on this item.
 
How many wires? If its got 3 wires I'll whip up a poor mans booster plug but will take it a step further by making it user adjustable.

Ok, you all have seen it , so it's a loop of wires hanging down from the main wiring loom just on top of the rocker cover, with a plug cover to the left of the motor, don't know what it does leading to a dead ended bunch of wires in a plug looking set up with a rubber boot sealing it with a anteater snorkel to the dead end filled with silicone. I can only think they put it there to pass emisions testing. hotter air has less oxygen so the ecu gives less fuel for less emissions. Sorry, look from the right and there she be. I like the fiddle , hope this helps, definite sharpness increase IMO.
