I think I found the EPNOC Grease

[Ernie]

Stopped by my Local Yamaha Dealer today and found some tubes of EPNOC in a box stuffed in the corner. Its EPNOC but is it the same stuff for the bearings?

THAT'S IT!!!
The Holy Grail.

What a great find. I wonder who carries it in stock on a regular basis.

I would think every dealer should have in stock right? lol

Yes you can do a search of the number and its comes up a lot now. One guy said they just started getting it last year and lots of people ask for it.

Its only $5.00 for a 4.5oz tube. Does anyone have the EP symbol in their service manual like it says on the bottle? Its not in the 2007 so maybe its in a later year service manual.

Subbing to this one. I ran the number through the dealer site, its in stock at Yamaha. Should be easy to get if anyone wants some...

I wonder if Yamaha read we were looking for it and decided to begin stocking EPNOC AP#0?

When I first pulled my pumps I went into the local Yamaha dealer trying to buy the various lubricants and sealants listed in the service manual. They did not have any of it!

A Yamaha motorsports shop agreed to order the moly grease and took advance payment but called back a few days later to cancel.

I few years ago I too looked around with no success. I am glad it is available now but I am more happy with switching to an oil bath for those bearings.

I bought that exact thing from Riva. Watch out for the shipping. Was something like $9 ground.

Ya I got from Riva also. Just did the lucky13 install.

Having used Oil on the SeaDoo pumps for so long, and seeing how sorry the grease looks when I open my cone, I'm quite happy to use the oil+grease I've been using vs the OEM stuff. Maybe if they had had it available when I was looking I might not have gotten creative, So much of the bearing looks so dry. but it must do something because many pumps are still fine after many years with no inspection!

Glad its available and reasonably priced. Keep us posted on how it looks!

I have always used this for high pressure or high heat applications for over 10 years with no failures at all. Even jetpump bearings
