There seems to be a lot of different types of grease. Copper, silicon, graphite, penetrating. Which for what??
I think it depends on if it is in a temperature critical area. Some have a high melting point.

Also what its lubricating i believe - i know you must use rubber grease on piston seals for example and that type of grease is organic not chemical.
If you dont have rubber grease you can use gip fat or olive oil if you're feeling posh!!

I was going to apologise for not replying to your comments earlier but I'd not had notification that the thread had replies. It seems that the site mailer identified the high b****cks content of the replies and decided it wasn't necesary to notify me... :-)
Thanks for the little nuggets of useful info tho. Quite why 3-in-1 don't have a single table showing what's for what, I don't know...
Not liking this colder weather. I've got chills. They're multiplying.
