Reply To: Johnson TS20 lower unit grease

Welcome RJ! You don’t use modern grease gun grease in your gear case. The stuff that was originally recommended for your motor is no longer available. You need a “00” grade grease aka lubraplate, John Deer corn head grease or Picker head grease sold by Tractor Supply. Lubraplate and Tractor supply come in squeeze bottles. That is what I use in my older cases that require some sort of sticky stuff. Many older motors have no seals in them. 00 grease stays in and lubricates even if water is inside. Make sure you drain the water out before freezing weather.
