I've been doing this for years with all my ratchets. My long-time snap on dealer told me and showed me the results of the trans fluid cleaning and lubricating of ratcheting assembly
Which one are you referring to? From their website some of their lubricants and greases do specify PTFE but none specify graphite. Neither in the description nor in the SDS.
@@pubcollize My mistake, sorry. It used to have graphite in it. That was the whole reason for the tri in the name IIRC. I've used this stuff for a long time.
Motor oil will do the same thing. Experience should lead you to this solution. If you are a younger mechanic, you'll get smarter. Just keep on keepin' on!
