getting rid of that green gangrine

[imdoo'n]

anyone have any luck getting green corrosion of off plug in terminals on a quad. have a few that need to be cleaned, and looking for something to terminate that green mung.

Try jello shooters, it might not work...but how much harm can it do.....

 

[zeebs]

contact cleaner in the female end and just keep plugging and unplugging it and it should get cleaned enough. Then once its cleaned and working, refer to the "dielectric grease????" thread

Good luck

seaman with out the salt should take care of that...........:d











i just use wd40 and scrape it till most is gone... then use di or wheel bearing grease...

You can use a set of tweezers, or buy the tweezers with the abrasive tips for electrical connections. I have a set from MAC that I have to pick up from the truck yet,.. but I am sure some narrow tip regular ones would also work. Then throw some dielectric grease in the plug.

Cut the plugs out and hardwire it.


Friggin green plugs.

Try Franks Red Hot, most people on this site seem to use it a fare bit!

contact cleaner or a mixture of baking soda and water. spray it on and brush a bit if possible with a toothbrush or something, use the wifes or kids, make sure not to use your own. then like everyone said lots of dielectric grease.

Nope, I am more of a bullseye hickory sauce kind of guy......

I've seen this before... The green is caused by a rare case of Kawasakithomia. Sorry to tell you, your quad thinks its a Brute Force.

Symptoms include following Kawasaki's, even to mud holes they normally wouldn't try, thoughts of V-twin, and everything is seen in shades of green.

So far there is only one cure....

you've been sucking fumes again Quad, thought we talked about that. These delusions of grandeur are gonna be your undoing!
