    Just used CRC Desqueak- Rolls in neutral without a sound. Rode it around and worked the product into the rotors- Smooth as silk for the moment. I also lubed all of the linkage. Time will tell.

    Scotty-That switched accessory has a 5 amp fuse in the block- I have my 200w stereo attached to it via a 20 amp relay- However, if I max the volume, it takes out the 5 amp fuse. Any suggestions?
