What Grease???

Hi, what grease is recommend for the following applications?

1, Trailer Wheel Bearings

2, Inside Remote controls & under the outboard hood like throttle linkages etc.

3, The external grease nipples on the outboard.

And is there any other worth while getting e.g. for the steering tube etc ???

Thanks in advance

Hi whisper use a high temperature grease on the bearings as you probably know the bearings can get very hot also use it on all the other parts under the outboard hood as well

I tend to use the Yamlube silicone based stuff for all the boat bits.
