 Lubrication to prevent seizing

Threaded joints subjected to wide temperature fluctuations may tend to seize and will then be difficult to unscrew on the next service occasion.

Typical threaded joints of this type are:

Oxygen sensor

Retaining nuts for the exhaust manifold and turbocharger

Recommended lubricants: MOLYCOTE 1000 - 30 20 971 or NEVER SEIZE.
