Anybody know what kind of grease is used in the 901 throw-out bearing??
It is some sort of heavy waxy grease. Ken |

They cannot be regreased as far as I know. But if you are doing this on the cheap just use a high quality bearing grease and force as much in there as you can. Then clean up the outside of the throwout bearing. This will last for a while but if the bearing is out of grease and when you spin it, it makes a grinding noise-junk it!
