I've been wondering about this for a while.  I had to
squirt some screws & studs to get wires off, but I
became uneasy about the residue.  If it's
non-conductive, won't it interfere with the
connections?  If it's conductive, couldn't it short
along the drips & runs?

I remember hearing about spraying WD40 into
distributors to displace water, and I was always
suspicious of the same thing.  How could it be
conductive enough to not interfere with the points,
yet not short out to the rest of the inside of the
dist.?
