What makes Tri-Flow grease great for gears is what makes it unsuitable for motors. T-F grease is synthetic based and does not get soft and flow with heat. This is what makes the Singer motor lube and Petroleum Jelly work for motors. When it gets hot, it gets soft and flows.
Stick with Singer Motor lube or Petroleum Jelly.
