      Hello Pearson Owners,
      I am replacing my intermittent starter solenoid. I removed the old one and found the spring loaded piston had grease on it. Is there a special solenoid grease?
      Best,

      I had the solenoid on my starter replaced and there was no discussion of
      special grease.

      Stop by an auto electric repair shop and ask what they use for grease in
      the solenoid.

      Thanks Pete, That was my plan. The solenoid was hooking up and I am wondering if it just might need to be repacked with grease.

      Grease is a problem child… I once was flying a plane and a glob of
      grease landed on the micro switch that made the flap control system
      believe the flaps were up when in fact they were all the way down. Good
      thing air planes have windows in the cockpit so I could see that the
      flaps were down…

      That is why I am asking the question.

      Good thing my boat doesn’t fly!
