Hello Mark
Penrite Steering Lube should do the trick. The Lube is a semi-fluid grease
with additives to keep it from seeking avenues of escape. The bottle has a
tube that can be extended so putting it in the box is relatively
easy. Warming in a pan of hot water will help it to flow. Any residual
oil will be pushed out by the thicker lube. Just fill as normal.
Please send you mailing address and I will get a bottle out in the
mail. When I have your address I will be able to let you know the amount
of shipping. Which I will send you in an email with a total. I don't take
credit cards but your personal check or money order is fine. The Steering
Lube is $10.95 per bottle.
Just as an aside, even though synthetics are the correct viscosity they
tend to be thinner in body and will leak by some gaskets and seals as
apposed to real oil which feels thicker and probably would not.
I will include a brochure packet with a Penrite Lubrication Recommendation
Sheet for Healeys.
Thanks for the inquiry.
Have a great day and God Bless.
Jon
