To support what you outlined, my 2003 manual lists Molykote G-n as an acceptable substitute to Moly 60, and G-n is most definitely...a paste!
Be advised that Dow Corning GN paste is only 20 to 30% molybdenum disulfide. This would suggest that a moly content of 60% (as many claim is what the Honda Moly 60 contained) is not the moly content that is required.
That is a bit if a conundrum right now. I would want to come as reasonably close to the Honda Moly 60 as possible since we know that it worked. I don't consider exceeding the moly content of the Honda Moly 60 by a significant amount any better than having a lubricant with significantly less moly content- more is not always better. I have seen specifications where the Honda Moly 60 was listed as having 40% molybdenum disulfide. I have also seen where it is listed as 60 to 70%. What is the reality? Does anyone have a Honda Moly 60 MSDS or TDS so we will know for sure?What Moly content would you be satisfied with? What was the Moly content of Moly 60?
