Those cursed 240 fuses 200 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be Robb McC on  Fri Apr 29 15:59 CST 2011 [RELATED]

All,
Seems every 6 or 8 or maybe 10 months I come out of a store and no start - plenty of cranking just no fire. I turn fuse 4 and 6 around or just take them out and put them in and it starts right up. Today I found 2 shinier ones in the bag and it started. So the cycle continues. Then as soon as I get a chance I take all the fuses out clean everything with a wire brush and smear a little dielectric grease on each end and put them back in. Good to go for another while so now probably in the fall or better next winter when it's 10 below - no start again. What am I doing wrong? Is it the grease "aging" or something? Should I leave that out? It's not unusually damp or anything in the cabin. I don't get it. Do others have this annoyance?
Thanks,
Robb
