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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

The engine turns over slowly

I have a Husqvarna SM610S from 1999 that's really hard to start.

One day I was on my way out fore a ride the bike dies after 500 meters just like it got no fuel. And after that the it the engines just turns over slowly.

I checked the piston, cam, cylinder. The battery, every wire and connection. Everything is mmmkay. When the bike starts it runs fine but it just take ages to start it.

I thought it was the auto decompressor spring so I changed the cam to another used one. But the trouble remains.

Am I missing something? Whats happens if I take the old cam and just change the spring? Will the engine turn over faster? Ore can it be another problem?
 
You guys are really helpful... Not a single answer.

Well I am chasing a ghost so here is another question I cant find the answer to in my workshop manual.

What jetting should I use? I am at sea level and the temperature is about +18C.

The last owner had a 198 main and that feels way to big. A 62 in low speed nozzle, and the original K32 (?) needle in the 3 clip.

It feels like the bike suffocates in it own fuel when I am trying to start it.

It has the orginal Delorto carburator.
