RE: [papercreters] Re: tow mixer rotation

That is exactly what I would have thought would happen.  Water will displace the oil the grease will displace the water.

Filling it with bearing lube is what I ended up doing on my e-150 rear end, have not had a drop of water come out of the overflow tube. I had 3 new seals behind the yoke but water still found it's way in and it would it drip out gear oil and water of the overflow. Before the lube fill up job and the gear hum is gone now. I run a fixed position mixer on rollers and it flat got quiet after the lube.

I don't see how it would hurt but 90 weight gear oil is hard to beat.
