<VV> Dielectric grease

[shortle]

We have experience using dielectric grease to reduce the possibility of corrosion on electrical connections. Seems to work fine on what we use it for which is for EFI connections (at the air mass sensors, throttle switch, injectors, etc.). It does not seem to work (for me) on the rubbing blocks of ignition points. For that I use wheel bearing grease.

I know it is supposed to be an insulator, and it works well for that purpose. Testing has shown that tight metal to metal connections are NOT insulated by the dielectric grease.
