Dielectric grease

[Sully]

OK I use it ..
But I haven't used Dielectric grease on the plugs of
My Radar or GPS
It was mentioned to me tonight by a friend that I should
But If I use it on the pins of the plugs will it retard the connections
Or am I retarded to think so
I can see the value of the anti corrosion aspect but seeing
The plugs are sending info back and forth I'm not sure if I should

Whadda ya tink

I use it on ALL electrical connections and inside the boots of the plugs. Sure make plugs easier to remove!

And when I bought a new-to-me motor, I took apart all of the ECM, plus, and coil connectors, cleaned and re-greased them, plus all on-board electrical plug or Deutsch-type connections.

BONUS - Buy a large tube @ auto parts stores and get 3X as much versus a tiny expen$ive tube at marine chandleries, i.e., 'stores' for you new boaters .

I use diaelectric grease on all non-permanent connections but Vaseline will work just as well.
