Re: '34 Dist. WICK
Posted by Owen_Dyneto On 2015/8/8 9:18:48
Any petroleum-based oil or grease in close proximity to the points is potentially a problem as spatter or mist will greatly shorten the life of the points. Best lubricant for such places is a dielectric silicone grease or oil.
I'm curious to see a picture of the wick, I've been thru many 34 Eight and Super Eight distributors and never seen a wick that contacts the cam. There is of course the wick under the rotor that lubricates the slip joint between the drive and the cam - a few drops of light motor oil there is appropriate.
