Radio shack has been carrying tubes of paste rosin flux for as long as i can 
remember...

Little white tube with a black cap.. has a dark honey colored thick liquid.. 
about like maple surip thickness...

Having been into electronics for a lot longer than messing with 
tractors,.... I can say that the smell of burning flux is just as much a 
turn on as is the smell of diesel smoke...
