OK, so it's a bit late for me to be asking this, as I did it a few months ago, but I wanted to check if I should leave it or change the grease out.
Basically, I fitted a short shifter in my car, which had the usual plastic collar and ball as a pivot point for the lever. I think the collar is made or nylon or something similar. Not sure about the ball, but it's plastic again by the seems of it.
Anyway, I used this grease, as it was all I had lying around and seemed like it should do a decent job. Will it be OK with the plastics, or should I change it out for white grease or similar? The shifter seems fine in use, I just want to make sure that this stuff isn't going to eat or degrade the plastics in any way.
