MG Midget and Sprite Technical - wiper motor

Hi,My wiper motor is making a squealing noise so I am going to strip it and lub it up. Question is, should I use grease or oil on the bushes?
Thanks

Done it. Oiled it in the end, bush was bone dry. I hope it lasts as I don't want to do that job again for a while. I dropped my best rachet down the wing so I had to remove it to get it back. I was not happy! Still, done now and no more squealing in the rain.

I'd have used grease... proabably a CL grease

the oil is likely not to last that long

oh well too late now
