Maybe that was it.... And yeh the superchump upsold some weird glue stuff to stop the terminals getting "white gunk" (you can see the ohmo fabric ring things in the pic). I'll go buy that brush and do it again. It hasnt stalled since, but could be other unrelated issue. Cheers Why would you go and buy a fancy brush when you can just use steel wool? Silly bugger spending to much time looking for new wheels instead of thinking. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it wasnt perfect lol I have this spare from random project....will it suffice? Or will it be too fine (legit question). Need new rims now as well? Nope. In the next 6 months probably if I sell these ones to someone else. Next ones will be keeping for a while I rekon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be fine, ive used a terminal screwdriver to rough up the posts and inside of the terminals, smashed it down, job done. Dont however, touch the steel wool between the posts.....Sandpaper would probably work, wire brush..etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The spray they tried to sell you is to coat the terminals and stop any corrosion or oxidisation buildup on them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
