Default Re: What lube for '39 vacuum wiper motor?

I just found this great article on "Lubricating the Vacuum Wiper Motor". My motor is very stiff so I'll be just oiling using Marvel Mystery Oil, MMO, I know it is good for the leather in my Columbia vacuum canister so a good choice here.


I know that brake fluid and ATF will swell rubber and give a better seal. I'm not sure how it acts on leather which is used on the wiper motor internal paddle.
