Engine reassembly 444-544

I have seen and used two very different style of engine assembly lube... The one I first used was very thick and sticky. It got everywhere and stuck... It's like honey.

When I started to rebuild an engine for a 1939 tractor, I was worned not to use that stuff. It's simply too thick to hand crank over an engine (the tractor is a hand crank start) with that stuff if the bearings are new and tight. I was given an aerosol spray can of assembly lube. I don't remeber the brand (I can check later) but it seemed to stay where you sprayed it and was alot neater to work with. I have used that stuff since.
