[Mgs] NOS Speedo Angle Drive

[Michael MacLean]

Before trying to dis-assemble this NOS drive unit, on a hunch, I applied several drops of Microil by Kano Labs.  Kano makes Kroil also.  Microil is a super light lubricating oil for instrument mechanisms and light machinery.  I thought it might penetrate the inlet and outlet of the drive without taking it apart.  After a couple of applications the angle drive now turns freely.  Thanks everyone for all the suggestions.  Now I'm just wondering if this thin oil will be sufficient to put it in service.  I can't think of another way to lubricate it without opening it up.Mike MacLean

Soak it in kerosene to soften and remove the old grease, then re grease with fresh
