I have a reply from Fluid Film that warned against using it to lubricate my walking belt. Maybe no big surprise. I haven't found a local supplier of Slip Coat near my small town, again no surprise but I am going to try the Slik Stik equivalent unless I get other advise not to. I will pick it up when I can get around to the 70 mile drive to Nanaimo. I need to go down there anyway. I also have a 4th replacement choke on order which I can use to make up one large choke with the same electrical characteristics as my single smaller choke but with 4 times the mass hence overheating 4 times slower, in theory. If that doesn't work I will move the choke out of the treadmill and into a chilled oil bath using items I have on hand. I can be quite stubborn and I am short of money. Thanks for listening.
