Hey, my Battery positive terminal is growing fur on, will wiping it away and putting some vaseline on there stop it? Or does that give a better connection? Its only a little bit but I don't want it getting any worse!

Any help will be great
Thank you!

as Adam said mate, may be worth examining the condition of the wiring whilst your there and also give the bulk head Earthing strap a quick clean as winters coming in now!!
