 Re: Grease?
Remove the bleed screw by the prop, then pump grease in at the insert bythe belt housing. Purge grease until all old grease is out, you will see a change in color (it will take allmost an entire tube of grease). Then replace bleed screw (do not add grease with bleed screw in place, this will blow your seals out).

 Re: Grease?
Every 15 I check mine too. Just give it a couple pumps to make sure there is no water in there. Ive never completely flushed it.

 Re: Grease?
I change mine every time I change my oil. I get some water out of mine but not much.

 Re: Grease?
Even if you get alittle water go ahead and change them, i mean they could completely go out while underway and you won't know and you may damage internals before you catch it
