I believe there is a contact cleaner spray out there, not sure.

If me I'd use brake cleaner but haven't for this.

Yes on dielectric grease.

Vaseline works great for that too.
Rubbing alcohol and a pencil eraser will clean them up too.
Or WD-40....

What does it mean if I start pulling off in first gear, as I'm releasing the clutch I sense very little power. I push clutch in, take it out of first, put back in first, then it pulls off no problem.

My guess is a minor shift linkage issue is sometimes causing you to find 3rd gear instead of 1st.

I'm too lazy to tell you how utterly ridiculous that sounds.

Here's question that does NOT deserve its own thread.

Around here (Los Angeles county) ARCO gas cost about 20 to 30 cents a gallon less than other brands. You have to pay cash which is a minor inconvenience. But is there any difference in quality? Do you get what you pay for or is it all the same?

I use 91 octane in my tiico on the advice of the previous owner.

By demanding cash only, they don't pay usage fees for the card machine.
Ergo, cheaper gas.

That's good for 2% or about 6 cents per gallon. Less actually, because the cost of handling cash is not zero.

Th real reason is because it's extracted from the harvested eyelashes of baby harp seals. But the price is never forgotten...
