mbird Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Hi Guys What is the best stuff to use to grease up impellers when you first put them in. I have some bog standard waterproof grease, or a tube of silicon grease. Either of those any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DAYTONA-BILL Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I was going to suggest Vaseline, but seeing as you lot on here are so rude, there may be some sordid comments . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antares_9 Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Almost anything slippery will do as impellers are water lubricated and the grease is only there to cover the first few seconds running and to help insert the impeller. But silicone would be ideal as it is very slippery. Also KY Jelly, Vasaline or Anusol would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbird Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 Also KY Jelly, Vasaline or Anusol would work. Now stop it you lot before you even start "Please miss, can I have some KY jelly, it's for me boat, honest" "Yeah, right, sonny!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
