considered thoughts to the readers of rec.boats:


Stuff some small amount of axle or non-conducting grease into the shoulder
of the crimp connector after crimping. The idea is once the heat shrink has
shrunk a small amount will squeeze out and no air or moisture can get in.
Will last longer and not oxidize as fast.


Don't use axle grease..... use a good quality dielectric grease. I
prefer Dow Corning DC-4.

And the stuff is MUCH better to use in installing oil filters than
oil. You will never have a stuck filter....
