peter as i stated before they work in a submerged electrolyte environment where electric corrosion is a problem. they will not stop normal oxidation that is a different process. i agree with one of your other reponders. it has dubious value on a car consider this high priced snake oil. steve there are such things and yes they work very well provided they have been installed correctly. their purpose is to counteract electrolytic corrosion. this occurs when dissimilar metals are in contact through an electrolite solution. they work by monitoring the electric potential difference between 2 points and creating a couterbalencing potential and appying it. for intstance if you take a bronze propeller and throw it in the ocean. then in a hundred years remove the propeller. there might be growth but the prop would be intact. take the same propeller place it on the end of a stainless shaft stick it on a boat in the same ocean and with the slightest electric leakage on that boat and the prop could be wasted away in a year. these systems prevent that from occurring. however i think they have dubious value in a car. thanks for the explanation! im not sure if this would apply to a car but since its there why not use it. now i just wonder why it was left unplugged... maybe to reduce drain on battery peter .

do you know what the diameter of the drift punch would be off hand. i will get one made out of brass or aluminum if you have an idea what diameter id need. a standard drift that tapers down to 1/4 or so is what im talking about - you just work it around the bearing tapping it out. alternatively you can use the socket/extension deal to remove it as well. .
