When I rebuilt my  73 AH dist I used the Bosch dist cam lube for the
weights and the weight pivots. Since it's a sticky grease maybe I should
have used a different type. I didn't glob it on , just enough to lube them.
I didn't know since it said dist grease. I just thought since the dist
spins twice the engine speed it would not fly off and get all over
everything.
