Points plate and advance cabling lubrication?

[mtcabinfever]

I am replacing coils, points and condenser on my 1953 Big twin 25hp. What should I use for lubricant on brass bushing on plate assembly. Not sure if you normally lube bushing or if some white lithium grease would work well.. Also can I use on advance cables and pulley from throttle.

Re: Points plate and advance cabling lubrication?

The white lithium would be fine. The main thing is use it SPARINGLY. Any excess simply liquifies from vibration and is thrown off, fouling the breaker points. Just a thin film on the bushing and mounting plates is all that is required.

The cables normally are not lubricated. A drop on oil in the pulleys, is fine.
