What would be the recommended grease for in the reservoir of the top distributor bushing ? Appreciate any advice, Thanks
I have used lubriplate myself. Todd from Stage Won recommended this bike grease, but I haven't used it. https://philwood.com/collections/lu.../products/3-oz-tube-of-phil-waterproof-grease
Was looking around on the internet and from what I found basically any wheel bearing grease will do. Thanks for your help
I would have thought wheel bearing grease wouldn't wick through the holes for the bushing being how thick and high temp it is. But at the same time many have run for many years with nothing there at all.
Yes I agree and also felt the same way on the grease but then I read an article about it being all wishful thinking on the design. That it gets it lubrication from oil mist in the air. After seeing how mine was still filled to the top with grease and had never been serviced I had to agree with article . And if I wasn’t doing an engine rebuild I wouldn’t have serviced it either, Lol. I’m sure your recommendation would have been a better choice but I just ended up using what I had. I really appreciate your help. Thanks again.
I had a new one but it didn’t fit like almost every other reproduced part you buy , so I did end up using the original one as it was still in decent condition.
