I believe that any of todays=E2=80=99 greases are far superb to those of =
the 1950=E2=80=99s. You won=E2=80=99t go wrong by using a good lithium =
based grease.

I want to clean and re-grease my wiper motor gearbox in my =E2=80=9856 =
TR3 while I have it out of the car.  My manual states that it is =
necessary to use grease containing zinc oxide.  I have only been able to =
find Castrol grease with the zinc oxide in countries other than the US.  =
Anyone have any experience with this?  Recommendations for other grease =
or sources for zinc oxide grease?  It isn=E2=80=99t listed in the front =
of the manual but is stated in the electrical repair section of the =
wiper motor.  Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Pete
