If anything, the oil base just insulates and keeps the metals from interacting. Any grease would do the same. If it contained zinc, the zinc is more electronegative and would be sacrificial, but there really isn't enough metal in here to make a significant difference. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
