Hello,

I am finishing up going through all the lube points on my "new" '32. The accelerator pump shaft on the carb calls for graphite grease (to be filled under cover plate screw). Does anyone know if this is actually dry graphite power, or is there a graphite grease that should be used? All I can find at the auto part shops is dry graphite powder. If someone has a recommendation on where to find graphite grease, (and what type if there are options) you help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Thomas Toups

You can use modern Moly chassis grease.

Use a few drops of oil instead and that will work just fine.
