Hi guys!
Going through my Meg for my usercourse on friday

My DSV is really hard to turn so I greased it up with some Christlube.....not a great idea it turned out...now even harder to turn...
What do you use?
Cheers Rodge

christolube is the right thing to use but you only need a tiny amount. i take it you stripped it down.

if it is still stiff remove one of the circlips and it will free up.

your instructor will take you through this.
have fun on the class.
