There are 2 theories. -the grease acts as a damper to counteract vibration -the grease lubricates to the point that the metal does not stick and screetches and just slides and does not vibrate Kees O

Not so sure about this. The temperature is regulated by the thermostat, more or less. If more heat is developped it will open further to allow more cooling to drop the temperature to the set level.

I would not be surprised if the Holden unit is also manufactured by SMITHS. At least the resistance seems to be rather similar. From my mind the SMITHS figures are ca. 30-280 Ohm. Kees Oudesluijs Pet
