I find it online. 'shopping' and Google.

It is quite expensive, shocking in fact...But it is really good stuff. There's high pressure in the can, and a very agressive 'carrier' solution. Comes out of the can as a very thin and penetrating liquid that quickly flows into all the little crevices and cavities then the solvent medium evaporates quickly. Leaves a sticky high temp grease behind that really 'slicks' things up. My shift linkage espesially likes it. You can squirt it, up to about 6 feet, to places you can't easily reach...it penetrates well. Speedo cable is another spot where it has done right by me....and the Side-slider rollers...though there, it will sometimes collect grit.

It would be useful if someone could link to or take time write up a good list of points that need lubing on the vanagons. I bet there are some that I haven't found yet..and I go searching, with my Wurth's, about every couple of months..I think 300 places to oil...that may be an exaggeration...grin.
