If you have a=C2=A0grease-gun tube of corn head grease as sold at John Deer=
e stores, just take the tip off the chuck on the grease gun--you do have a =
flexible hose on the gun, right?--and pump away. l think that will push the=
 lighter oil out through the fill port. =C2=A0You will want to protect your=
 floor, of course. =C2=A0I topped mine off a few weeks after the fill. =C2=
=A0I had no need to empty the original oil, which unexpectedly dumped itsel=
f without a hint of prior leaking. =C2=A0

 Well, if no oil is coming out then all is fine, isn't it. Just fill it wit=
h the grease. Unless you want to rebuild it of course, but then you will ha=
ve to take it out of the car anyway.
