[Shotimes] Removing the front ABS sensor

[Paul Nimz]

Where I use to work they used a naphtha type solvent to wipe off the top of
the batteries during assembly.  For some reason after using this for 40
years they decided it was a hazardous solvent, benzene I think.  Any way
they went to WD 40.  Bought 55 gallon drums of it at around $600 a barrel.
Worked good as a solvent.

They were suppose to keep it agitated as the WD 40 component would settle
out.  They never did and usually threw away the last 5 galloons or so.  This
was a white milky liquid.  Still got 5 gallons or so around.....  Anyway it
is also a good cleaner/solvent.
