    Hola Dudes, I have question about the o-ring lube specified in Bentley for the water pump (Syntheso Glep 1). Naturally I don't have said stuff so can I use Super Lube synthetic grease? Any recomendations? Looked in the "Library" and I don't have Sil-glyde either.

    Thanks,
    Bryan

    Sil-Glyde is also long-lasting, heat-resistant, and easy to apply. Found at NAPA stores.
