Mastervac actuator rod grease?

[Kyle]

Hi all-

list traffic is slow today, so here I am on the forums!

My mastervac is out for repainting, and I removed the actuator rod (master cylinder side) to keep it from falling out.

It's got some sort of grease on it; what is it? I need to regrease it before reassembly.

Thanks!

Not sure exactly, but all the ones I have messed with it almost seemed to be about the same as wheel bearing grease.

The grease seems to do a few things - keep the rubber insulator (between the actuator rod and the piston (pedal end)) in place, and seal the actuator rod seal to the mastervac body.

I agree about the consistency - it was white, heavy, and pretty sticky, though there wasn't very much of it. Just wanna make sure it's okay to use general purpose white lithium grease in there.

Thanks for the help!
