Sterndrive greasing


Recommended Posts

I'm doing the 100 hour service on my Mercruiser and want to make sure I use the right grease for the coupler and gimbal bearings. The manual says Quicksilver 2-4-C grease. I called one shop and they said the proper grease is different grease than "all purpose marine grease" and to get a spline grease. I called a boating supply shop near work and they looked up the 2-4-C in the book and it's a "general use marine grease" that can be used for everything marine related. I just want to get the right lube for the job and try to prevent a breakdown or unnecessary wear and repairs. I have the general purpose marine grease for the trailer bearings already. What should I use?

Thanks
