Hey thanks Ken and John too: Ken,what you're saying is exactly the answer I was shootin' for. While I have a pretty good grip on how well the dielectric grease principle is supposed to work and how nothing a guy would do can last forever, but I was not aware/wasn't thinking about how that it could be conductive to the other terminals. I figured it was all the same stuff, brand to brand. But that is exactly the kind of problem (what you described) that I don't want to have. I'm thinking in a single terminal situation, it probably doesn't matter as much how much gets applied. But when you've got 7 terminals all within about an 1/8" of each other, I'd sure want to protect 'em from corrosion AND keep 'em seperated, even if by only millimeters! John, I'm probably overworkin' this subject a bit in my own head, but I had also thought about tipping it downward a bit on the installation and about how sealing it up too tight might just encourage the corrosion too....still not quite sure where I'll come down on that last one. Still, thanks for the advice. I do a lot of muddy road drivin' so I'll probably try to get it say 90+ percent tight and hope for the best. Y'all been great here....thanks for the help! I like this forum a lot!!
