[QUOTE="nickt, post: 704828, member: 4923"] I would do both of the above suggestions. Wd40 is a good fixer for many things, right up there with duck tape. The carrier is a great solvent and cleaner and is electronics friendly. I used it for electrical contacts before I found deoxit. I've never seen it damage plastics either. The carrier evaporates and leaves behind some mediocre dry lubricant. It does well cleaning up old dried out lubes. If it works, I would follow up with some deoxit. Although made for contacts, its a bit more oily and if it gets to the right place might give a more lasting fix. When I was a kid, I needed to carry wd40 in my first car. Every time it rained my wires would start sparking and I'd stall. I'd have to jump out and spray my distributor cap and wires with wd40 and it would start right up. Good times. [/QUOTE]
