SPAM-LOW: Re: Preventative maintenance; stubborn alternator bolt
I use Cailube instead of dielectric grease on my terminals, it's is a
conductive (anti-seize) grease, that improves electrical connections, and
keeps them from corroding.

This could be a "study group" for those already adhering to the teachings of
"The Church of the Free Electron". What doesn't get dielectric grease and
sanding, gets antisieze. And for the record, I hate those bolts.
