I was wondering if any body had took off the grease fitting up top by the air box and moved it down on the housing on the four stroke models my old lx210 had the fitting in the housing

I know somebody moved a zerk onto the housing but I couldn't find any posts about it. If you don't you should probably take the hose off at the housing and pump your new grease at the top until it comes out at the bottom. There's no telling when the last time it was done or how old that grease might be. At least you will assure yourself of getting fresh grease in there when you put it back on (my hose was empty so the 2-3 pumps wouldn't have done much)
