    Needle bearing grease

    I am putting together a mariner 175 HP, with the storm going on in Florida I have no idea when my needle bearing grease will show does anyone no what else I can use. I have read Vasaline will work fine is this true. Anything else out there I can use.

    Vaseline will be fine. Will melt out almost immediately.
