[QUOTE="craveman85, post: 386616, member: 11684"] I take out my impeller every year and put it in a zip lock bag with silicone in it. It adds plasticity and flexibility back to old hardened rubber. I use dielectric grease, camp dry, permatex silicone lube spray. Lately I've found I like dot5 brake fluid. It's silicone based where as 3,4, and 5.1 are glycol based. I've heard of people using other brake fluid to keep it soft. It works on your seals in your cars brake system. I keep my bag with my impeller in it taped to my unplugged spark plug wires so I don't forget it. Oh running 13 years on my impeller in my 18 hp fastwin and it's still in good shape. [/QUOTE]
