[Healeys] FW: Distributor Lube Thingy - DM6A

[bluechip]

Hi Jack:   I believe the large spring is just to keep the threaded cap from 
turning by itself.  Can't answer about the second spring.

I simply screw in the cap a turn or two once or twice a year.  When it 
bottoms out, I repack it with wheel bearing grease.
