Lucas Electrics 'balm'

Not just any 'contact cleaner'...this stuff really works. I recommend it personally. The regular DeoxIT should be fine for most car applications. You can buy at Radio Shack but they sell it online now and you can buy larger sizes at a discounted price. Unfortunately they do have a $25 minimum for online ordering.

Down under the forums there's an interesting post from a Mercedes owner...about 2/3s down the page on the left side.

Are you trying to imply that a Triumph owner might have some kind of electrical issues?

How could you say such a thing?

I have used Deoxit when I cleaned up my headlamp & sidelight connections - seems to work well.

This may be of interest:

You know, with all this mis-information about Lucas, a while back they decided to branch into home equipment. First thing they made was a vacuum cleaner. Whadyahknow, it was the only product Lucas ever made that didn't suck.
