    I need to install my block heater in my new (to me) '02 Prius and I'm out of the goop that cane with it. Any ideas on where to get the little bit I need local and cheap? Is there a substitute?

    Thermal grease sold at Radio Shack or other electronics stores. Thermal grease improves heat transfer from power electronics to heat sinks.

    Would dielectric grease work?
