rex/regina coil pack deoxit-d! 700 1990

Ahoy

I'm going on suggestions from Dave Barton and Ron Qwas about Penetrox.
Yes Zinc is a conductor but the zinc paste isn't supposedly.

I'm testing a thin film of Penetrox-D in my CPS and AMM connectors now.
So far so good, but way to early to be confident.
My guess is that after market CPS likely have cheap unplated connectors
and dis-similar metals promote electrolysis and bad news for connectors.
Why would a CPS quit and start working again? It's a simple pick-up coil?

Connectors are a weak point in geriatric wiring.
Going near bullet connectors with solvents can destroy them.

DeOxit has an interesting new grease that you can get a tiny free sample
I'll try that on the connectors if the engine resumes it's chronic long term
bad habit of gagging/outright quitting reported by the previous owner.
It goes for weeks or many months between it's evil behavior.

How can I e-mail you for some off topic stuff?

Bill
