Dave, what is the "correct" type of grease to use?

Opinions vary.

Of course, this is RAS ;-)

Some sort of white lithium grease it probably best.

I used to use white lithium...
Advantage: really easy to see if its clean.
Disadvantage: less "slippery" than some other greases,
does tend to cake up.

I have used just plain vaseline, and have also seen it act
more like glue than grease...

Right, not recommended.

I'm not sure what I'm using now: Lange provides good grease
in a big syringe in the pouch that holds the pins. It lasted
for assemblies for 900 hours of flying, then they gave me a new
syringe. I'll make sure its provided to you with your new Antares.

The synthetics like Superlube are really good.

See ya, Dave "YO electric"

Thanks. I've been using Permatex white lithium grease. Back to the gym this winter.
