Johnny4428:
Just wondered what the consensus off opinion on treating block connectors before connecting them up.  Better to leave clean and dry or maybe a squirt of WD? How do you treat yours?

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
When I've replaced block connectors after cleaning contacts I clip them together then squirt some WD40 on them in the hope of driving out any moisture, I have run out of contact cleaner that might be better. Bullet connectors I just do dry.

Not saying it's a good idea, just being honest.

Johnny4428:
Just wondered Ted with them being quite exposed to the moisture road spray etc.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
In my head I think after it stops raining then they blow dry!😃

Johnny4428:
Probably do indeed. I’m not generally getting my connections wet, but do usually get an annual soaking getting caught out.😜
