OT -- car door locks need lubrication
On another list, poster writes that all three
key locks on her vehicle stopped working. She had always used the key fob remote, so never noticed. This is often due to rock salt, and weather. The metal they use on car door locks tends to corrode very easily. There are a LOT of people who never noticed the salted up car locks. Car door locks are the only place I ever use 10w30 motor oil for lubricant in locks. I have a syringe with large bore needle, and give em all half a CC in the fall when I remember. Today, I have been reminded. Oh, in this case WD-40 serves both as lubricant and also water displacer. Much better than leaving the locks dry. - .. Christopher A.
