    I just used a q-tip shined on coating of DeOxit L260D grease again. Only enough to polish the mating surfaces and not enough, so to remove my paranoia of melting traces of conductive grease that flow into a P0AA6 DTC. Figure is conductive and will see in the long run what the difference is. Feels like dialectical grease in this situation as well.

    It is advertised as increasing conductance by removing corrosion. They also say that it does not itself conduct. I find it to be a peculiar product since its properties work in both directions with respect to conductance. I wouldn't use it. I have a suspicion that the DeOxit grease "works" by being extruded from the contact zone so that the microscopic rough texture of the metal can make electrical contacts. Clean off the metal with something that can be fully removed and then screw everything together and then maybe problems from a slightly too thick layer of grease here or there will never arise.
