TR Paul Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Hello Chaps... I've bought a set of 'Maserati' air horns, for TRoy, my 1970 TR6. There's a label on the compressor that says lubricate monthly with 'Light oil'; My question is, what would 'Light oil' be defined as? I was thinking of using '3-in-1' Your advice would be much appreciated, Best wishes, Paul. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) Hi Paul, I would go with that. Roger Edited June 7, 2021 by RogerH Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nigel Triumph Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Yes, 3 in 1 applied sparingly should do the job. Nigel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kevo_6 Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Paul, I use 3 in 1 in my Maserati air horns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alfrom Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Works OK on my Stebels as well. I tried light oil on the headlights but it made no difference at all. . . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TR Paul Posted June 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 3 in 1 it is then! Thanks Nigel, Roger, Kev & Alfrom; that's much appreciated. Alfrom- I think Halogen Grease would be better for H/Lamps.... Cheers, Paul. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

barkerwilliams Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Lubricating with battery acid is great for air horns. Alan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
