[QUOTE="Ironman, post: 380083, member: 11625"] I've just cleaned down my coils and removed the skid plates to give them a good clean down as well. I bought this gear 2nd hand and some skid plates were attached to the coil with tape, while others weren't. I did a quick search on the forum and believe that taping the plate to the coil will help reduce things getting in between the plate and the coil. I also saw mention of using silicone instead of tape. One of the coils seemed to have electrical tape, while one of the others had some type of tape that was an absolute bast#$d to remove - had to use white spirits to clean the sticky residue off both the plate and the sides of the coil. Figured I'd throw it out there to see what other members are using or recommending. If you use tape, is there a preferred type?Electrical tape, duct tape, etc. Thanks in advance for you help with this. [/QUOTE]
