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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Where are you getting your oil filter HF563 filters?

The part number for 08 / 09 Husky four stroke oil filter changed to HF563 from HF154 (2007 and earlier).

There were problems in the supply line - does anyone know if they are available now?

Welcome to the Cafe.
You may check with George at Uptite In Santa Ana Ca. for the oil filters. I believe he had them on order and may have them in stock by now. There was some discussion about the new oil filters vs. the old oil fitlters so maybe a search of this forum willl net you some info.
 
Here ist the story:

the spring in the new filter is stronger than in the old one due to higher oil pressure of the 08 and 09 engines. So the HF563 is the right one for the latest models. The HF563 works well with the 07 and older engines though.

I wouldn't go with the HF154 for a 08 or 09 engine.

Cheers
 
If anyone knows of a company who has them, please let me know as I will be picking up my 09 SM510r on Friday.
 
Just so no one else reads this wrong, the new filter is for the DOHC motors. But for the 610 you can use either filter.
 
How I understand it, the new filters are somewhat bigger in dimensions then the 07 and older filters. The bypass valve is larger on the new filter. A stainless steel filter will pass more oil hot or cold so the bypass valve will never be used on a SS filter.

I have read of someone running a DRZ SS filter on a TE 610. I imagine if the filter fits and seals well with an o-ring/gromit and it's cover spring then it is good to use.

I run the Scotts SS filter in my 510 and it's dimessions match the 07 and older filters.
