I use mystic oil products.  Any good brand is ok...  I have a 30 gal 
drum of Sinclair grease that I bought years ago at a sale.  It is 
probably corn picker head grease.  It is the consistency of gun grease, 
but it will flow.  It also will string 4 ft when you dip you hand in the 
drum and pull it out!!!!  I have used it in gearboxes, truck 
trnsmissions, rear ends, anything that leaks.  It kept my dozer going 
for many years....  I just put the grease in with a gun or putty knife, 
then pour the oil in to the fill mark.  Run it a while and then check 
level...
