Default Re: I tried corn head grease!

we put 50 miles on yesterday so far no leaks. I think what I will do is put a few squrits of corn head grease in the steering gear every time I grease the car there is no draw back to over greasing that I can see it will just go up the column. maybe for 4 bucks a tube it would be best to grease everything with corn head grease?

Yeh, Just pump it in there until it comes out the horn button...

This stuff works so good I put it on my hot wieners. After lots of research Ive learned that John Deere Had this grease specially formulated for leaky gearboxes on their farm equipment. Ive watched a video of this stuff in a large gearbox in action with the top of the gearbox removed so you could witness it. will not push off, separate, and is self leveling. Stopped my gear box leak completely. I have used STP full shot and it leaked real slow and is a PITA to clean off. picked mine up at a local John Deere dealer close by for $ 2.50 What a surprise, bought 3 tubes... you never know.
