Found what for me was a quick, easy, nonmessy way to add to/fill the steeri=
ng box.
Bought a plastic condiment bottle with tapered point on cap from Bed, Bath =
and Beyond.=C2=A0 Paid around $2.=C2=A0 On the advice of a respected Healey=
 friend and follower of this list I purchased 140wt gear oil from O'Reillys=
 Auto Parts.=C2=A0 Filled the bottle, moved it into above the box, tipped t=
he tip into the fill opening and squeezed.=C2=A0=C2=A0 The 140 wt is about =
1 1/2 times the viscosity of motor oil.=C2=A0 Took 8-10 minutes and 1.5 bot=
tles full to fill the box.=C2=A0 Worked really well!!=C2=A0 Maybe not do as=
 well with some of these high viscosity products I hear you guys may use. =
=C2=A0 Don't know.
