I'm installing some replacement trigger points in my dizzy shortly. I read somewhere to use a small amount of lube on the cam lobes where they contact the trigger points before reassembly. Can anyone tell me specifically what brand or type of lube to use that I might be able to get at my local FLAPS?
Thanks

I use Bosch 5700002005 distributor grease. It is available online through Amazon and other sources, but it may not be available at your local FLAPS. I'm sure there are other lubricants that would work fine, but you did ask for specifics...and the Bosch grease is specifically what is called for. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

It's pretty unique grease. Very sticky. I'm presuming to stay in place and not sling all around the distributor.
