Title: Re: Pre lube for bearings ? Post by: Bruce on July 27, 2009, 09:49:25 am Use only engine oil.
Any grease you might think about putting in there just blocks the flow of oil when it's time to start the engine. Title: Re: Pre lube for bearings ? Post by: T11964 on July 27, 2009, 21:47:37 pm In the latest Hot Vw were they build a 1776cc , on the pics there`s some kind of red lube seen on the journals/bearings .
Just thought this might were better than oil. Title: Re: Pre lube for bearings ? Post by: RhoadsVW on July 27, 2009, 22:44:15 pm Joe Gibbs or Torco. Dave Rhoads
