Digger; As Mr. MacKay indicated, I use a white lithium grease in the distributor change-over kits I put together(to replace magnetos). The lithium has more "stickiness" and unless you work the tar out of your tractors I doubt you need to even grease the distributor as often as the book says. Generally on the distributors I rebuild there are two conditions; Those which have been liburicated(at least in some way)and show very little wear, and the distributors which have been left without grease and are basically rusted and worn due to rust. Essentially I guess I am saying you could use just about any type of lube, just as long as you KEEP it lubed(keeping in mind a little-dab'll-do-ya, just coat the gear)! My opinion is the white grease would extend the amount of time between applications.
