With 300 points to hit, wouldn't it be easier to just dip the whole van in a
vat of multi purpose lube?

Yes, some good savvy on WHERE to put lubricant and WHICH KIND would be
welcome advice for everyone on the List.  For instance...I was thinking
about what you (Turbovan Scott) said regarding shifter linkage; I have a
spare spray can of foaming motorcycle chain lube....would that be wrong or
right in this circumstance?  I used 3-in-1 oil on the felt pad in the
distributor, because it's easy to dispense a drop or 3 and was handy...dumb?
