when you install the cups - pack the boot cavity with brake purpose silicone grease - it saves the cylinder from corrosion.

silicone grease comes in many brands - local Pakistani grease is silicoslip by SLOAN. There are a bunch of other greases that you can buy at industrial lube shops, they are used where dust attraction is to be avoided.

GE Silicon Grease is available at electrical market Denso Hall M.A Jinnah Road. 250 GM for Rs. 1200 - Caterpillar Generator serviceman told me that when he was servicing the generator outside the building and a tin was placed next to his tool bag.

check your area as well if it is in Karachi it will surely be in other metros as well

Mash'Allah you've been busy lately (again),.. i really enjoy reading about what you have done when i'm done for the day. i sit back with my laptop and enjoy the read.

Keep up the DIYs and resto/maintenance work, this thread is like gold for anyone building a type1.

Xulfiqar (Xulfiqar) 2011-10-31 19:12:51 +0500 #1520

this thread is a Haynes manual presented with the difficulties of Pakistani maintenance. - lack of parts and years of grime as for some reason anyone holding a green passport loves to spray their cars underbelly with oil.
