I am slowly going through my 87 48 SPL motor and cleaning it up. On another thread, I mentioned that it had a rough idle. Compression check done and after first having a problem with compression tester fitting, both cylinders finally tested at 150 psi. Carb rebuild is done. Pulled flywheel to check ignition components under there and fix sticky armature plate. I removed the plate and there is some old grease around inside lip that will be cleaned out and replaced. But the service manual calls for " Johnson or Evinrude outboard lubricant" to be used to lubricate the armature plate bearing groove.
I found another thread elsewhere which mentioned that a couple drops of TCW-3 oil is a good substitute. Would this be better than say, silicone spray? I have both but would like to use whatever would do a better job. Thanks
