Default Bushing lubrication

Hey there

While doing a nut-and-bolt restoration af my 1981 928, among other things, replacement of all rubber bushings, the workshop manual dictates all bushings to be coated with Capella Oil B (Texaco). This however dosenīt seem to exist any more. Any idear of a substitute?

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I am replacing the upper a-arm bushings with the set from 928 international, but all the rest are Porsche originals i.e. rubber. I could coat them with silikone grease - Molykote 33 - but I am uncertain if this would work. Anyway, thanks for the reply.
