Saw your very interesting post. I'll look out for
something similiar in Oz and I'll mention it at my
next club meeting.

I've been bothered by the noise made by the timing and
mag gear 
noise while running my engines and came up with an
inspiration for 
you folks.
My hay bailer has huge bull gears that operate the
plunger and 
they require a heavy lubricant twice a day when in
operation. Last 
year the Freeman dealer gave me hell because I was
using cheap 
after market stuff and insisted I use their product. I
saw an 
immense difference immediately.  What this stuff does
is that it coats 
the gears and in the open air it solidifies to a point
that it is 
still somewhat flexible, yet fills all the gaps and
worn areas 
between the teeth.  The noise factor of when the teeth
mesh goes 
from loud to almost zero.
I am using it on my small engines and with great
success.
The product is Bull Gear Grease made by J. A. Freeman
& Sons, 
Inc. Part number F7626.
Just thought I'd share
Dave
