    Grease instead of oil in final drive

    yes as it no longer has an oil cooler I only run it for 30 minutes at a time and it doesnt travel more than a hundred yards from the house/shed in 8 years and sometimes not run for months or even a year . Maybe Ill try the thickest oil I can find and see how long before it leaks out :)
