Title: Lubricate your headlights!
Post by: Tha Driver on October 22, 2011, 08:05:49 pm
OK so here's the scenario: The right headlight on my Indy has never come up all the way on it's own. I don't drive it much, so I never got around to doing anything to it (including lube - which was my first choice/idea). I would just pull it up the rest of the way when I drove at night. So the other day I finally got around to shooting some lube on it. The very first time I turned them on it came up all the way! Works great now.
The moral of the story is; get out there & lube your headlights. Even if they're working just fine, lube them & take some stress off of the motors. Shoot spray lithium lube on all the pivot points, & smear a little general purpose grease where the housing rubs the doors to lift them. Your Fiero will thank you & run better.  ;) Might even save you expensive or time consuming headlight motor work.
