I love the m. cycle spray chain lube. The black stuff? Worked great for me on the hinges and sliders of paddock gates. Stayed in place in the rain. BTW I put it on my shift linkage too.

For instance...I was thinking about what you (Turbovan Scott) said regarding shifter linkage; I have a spare spray can of foaming motorcycle chain lube....would that be wrong or right in this circumstance? I used 3- in-1 oil on the felt pad in the distributor, because it's easy to dispense a drop or 3 and was handy...dumb? Rich San Diego |
