[Milsurplus] Esso Andok C grease equivalent

[Michael Hanz]

The separation is why in past emails I've suggested laying it flat in 
the refrigerator, in a ziplock bag.  Same thing happened to me, and 
reducing the head pressure seemed to solve it.  But there is a better 
version of it out now, one that uses a much more modern thickener made 
of polyeurea - same Mobil company.  It's called Mobil SHC Polyrex 102 EM 
(EM stands for electric motor).  I got a tube of that four years ago and 
it will protect your dyno bearings even better than the SHC-100.  It's 
come down in price - about $14 on Amazon.

Keep in mind that some later dynos may use permanently sealed bearings, 
so you won't need to/cannot repack them.  :-)
